New York Shitty Day Starter: Daniel Squadron Wants Our Support!
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Williamsburg
Per an anonymous tipster:
If the name Norm Brodsky seems familiar, gentle readers, here’s why:
- He was a founding member of Open Space Alliance.
- He owns the CitiStorage storage facility which isĀ
a colossal cash outblocking our brave march towards open space in Greenpoint. To the amount of $200,000,000 if Rami Metal is to be believed (skip to 8:03 and hear his words for yourself)
And three pillars of our community; Adam Perlmutter, Steve Hindy (Brooklyn Brewery) and Evan Thies (Open Space Alliance members and former Community Board 1 members all) are hosting a rally for Mr. Squadron at his home (READ: CitiStorage)!

As proudly announced during last month’s OSA “minute”*, the matter of Cooper Park’s barbecue pits is one of two enticing items on next week’s agenda!

P.S.: While I am vaguely on the subject, I saw a great deal activity (READ: a small army of Parks employees cleaning, “weed whacking”, etc.) this morning at Cooper Park.
Anyone have the 411 on what’s up?
*Which was actually 3 minutes and 36 seconds— but who’s keeping track?
