Quicklink: More Ado About Nick’s Garden

Remember the brouhaha about the Red Gate (AKA: Nick’s) Garden’s fence being torn down April 24th so as to provide access to the Boy Scouts? Well, here is the next chapter. New York Shitty analysis:

  • The “reasoning” employed by our parks person is downright Orwellian. Methinks the appropriate term is “doublespeak”.
  • A New York City parks employee (one who is reputedly very eager to generate more income by expanding the existing tennis courts at McCarren Park at the expense of kickball courts and basketball hoops, I’ll add) tossing around the word “privatization” is akin to the proverbial pot calling the kettle black.
  • One party insists she sent emails and made phone calls. The other is claiming nothing of the sort happened. Someone is not telling the truth.

Read it and weep. Pay attention to the comments. They’re rather illuminating.

Miss Heather

P.S.: Here’s the “leaked” email. And my rebuttal.
