Bedford-Union Armory Plan Puts Luxury Homes On Public Land, Residents Tell City
Angry Crown Heights residents filed into the latest in a seemingly endless string of public hearings about the future of a vacant armory Tuesday, this time before the City Planning Commission.
“It is a shame that we are even here to discuss this today,” Bertha Lewis told the panel. “It’s an outrage that this sham of a deal is even coming before this body in this form. And it’s yet another example of the mayor putting the needs of the people who funded his campaign above the people who elected him.”
