King Mike Bloomberg and his socialite mega millionaire city planner Amanda the people's Burden catered to their mega rich developer friends, still catering to them at the expense of the people of NYC. They did not give a thought to NY's old infrastructure they were giving free passes to bust through zoning....why was there zoning protection in the first place to push population growth with out considering little quality of life issues like transportation over load and garbage pick-ups and the need for more garbage cans.
At least the people of NY can take comfort in the fact that developers got a lot richer under Mike Bloomberg.
Mike Bloomberg even through out the requirement that the DOB commissioner have an engineering or architecture degree. Why do you think he did that? Because he wanted to make sure he could give out as many passes to recklessly build because supposedly that is good for the economy but in reality it was good for developers.
More on this coming soon.
