Insane story from New York City.

During Tuesday’s City Council Land Use hearing, Vernikov signaled her support for the revised rezoning proposal at 2501 Coney Island Ave. — one that will allow only four stories comprising 27 units and 35 parking spaces, down from the original proposal of 11 stories with 60 units and 24 parking spaces.

Car-brains aside, this smells like corruption. 7 floors with an avg of 5 apartments per floor amount to only 2 parking spots per floor? Wtf are they parking in those spots? Something doesn't add up. Over here we had the reverse problem: greedy developers signed for plans with x apts and y parking spots, only to convert the lower floor garages into extra minuscule apts after construction started.

Speaking of Coney Island and corruption, there's a shitty developer trying to bulldoze the heart of Coney Island (the amusement park, museum, theater, etc) to build a shitty casino. Literally no one in the community wants this and we've been fighting back, but the city doesn't care about what the locals want. Eric Adams has a hand in all this, to no one's surprise.

The shitty developer (Thor Equities) has a history of buying and destroying historic buildings in the area, and has been caught red handed bussing in out-of-townera to feign support

Coney is my performance home so I'm trying to raise awareness
