Save DUMBO

If you haven't already, please read dumbonyc's lastest post on the latest in terms of the proposed building in the Novo Clutch lot near the BK Bridge. He notes a NYT article from yesterday's paper that included a letter from council member David Yassky opposing the construction.

I didn't realize it but a Web site has been established, www.savedumbo.org, to help raise awareness for this issue. The Web site cites its mission as follows:

the brooklyn bridge and neighborhood of dumbo are currently being threatened by developers as historic buildings are being demolished and out-of-context replacements are being erected, all without regard for the interests of the local community. this site aims to give supporters of the brooklyn bridge and residents of dumbo a unified voice so that together we can preserve these unique landmarks. please join us in our current fight against dock street dumbo.
