    Late night recap:

    You think you could get a Gehry building torn down? They can't even get that piece of crap at Columbus Circle torn down.

    With regards to Ratner, stop talking for everyone in the city, Toby. It's not a bad idea. Develop Don't Destory Brooklyn are selfish jerks interested only in their own little corner of the world - and their property values.

    It doesn't matter who the Democrats run because they don't know how to run an effective campaign. And then they blame voter stupidity for their own mistakes.

  • That isn't a sculpture, that is Larry Silverstein's ego.

  • Drew

    Ok what the hell is that sculpture supposed to be? Anyone?!!!!

  • Frank Gehry is a hack who knows how to b.s. stupid people into thinking he is brilliant. Thirty years from now nobody will shed a tear when Frank Gehry's abominations are torn down and replaced with something decent. As for Bruce Ratner, why don't you build that in the swamps of New Jersey, cause that is where your stupid basketball team belongs. Or even bettter, go back to Cleveland and leave us alone.

    Oh, when is Al Gore going to shut up and who wants to see either his self serving movie or boring lecture. I hope that he doesn't run for president again, since there are much better people the Democrat party could run.

    Don't get me wrong but I don't think I personally would want to live with homeless people in a housing project..sorry.



  • Nope
