CB #1’s Chairman Christopher Olechowski announced that the Board is requesting various NYC agencies to monitor the numerous stalled construction sites in the district.
District Manager Mr. Esposito said “According to a list received from the Department of Buildings we currently have 109 sites that are stalled in their construction.” He is requesting that the City’s agencies (including the Buildings, Police, Fire and Sanitation Departments) to act proactively to ensure that they are adequately policed. He said, “There are valid concerns about public safety when construction sites become dormant. We are asking that these sites be checked for any adverse conditions such as trespassing, fence disrepair, illegal dumping and water ponding, and that action is immediately taken to abate any of the problems.” A full list of the stalled sites in our area, follows after jump:
These sites range in various stages of construction. The following sites are scattered throughout both the Greenpoint and Williamsburg neighborhoods:

I say we take the 109 stalled properties for affordable housing by eminent domain. There is never a problem for municipalities to take residents homes for luxury development, yet there’s not even a whisper for taking bust luxury developments for affordable housing for residents, despite the apparent crises. We’ll kill two birds with one stone (not that I like killing birds as I don’t).
We then call Washington for a “bailout” for the people. If the feds balk like they always do for the people, we’ll just charter the buildings as “banks” and then the money will flow ;-)
