Precisely how does implementing outputs of the CWG in time to actually stop these developments where they’re imminent undermine? What undermines is opposing any plan with the same CWG aims with no practical alternative, while sacrificing Two Bridges.

@AnnieTangent Christopher Marte CAAAV: Organizing Asian Communities TUFF-LES GOLES (Good Old Lower East Side) Urban Justice Center We’re seeing the Mayor rush the SoHo rezoning through in 8 months. CWG is ready, that’s why everyone who backed CWG organized to elect Chris. He’s gonna pass it. This partial plan’s been stuck in the City for 1yr + (or is it more?) bc you thought Chin would back you and she didnt

The CWG is a carve out; you speak as if only the Lower East Side needs these protections. We argue for setting a precedent which can and will be built upon. Again we ask why has no one submitted the CWG, but instead would stand in the way of its same aims?

At the rate Marte is moving, sorry to say there will be no fantasy island - just luxury. And seems like Marte is fine with that; certainly fine with sacrificing Two Bridges or so it seems. Would be happy to be wrong, but Marte hasn’t shown a plan.

Nice try but you don’t get points for not trying. No one has a crystal ball. It has to make it through City Planning, the CPC which is an organ of the Mayor before Chin or Marte can bring the Council along. Adams can ensure it never gets to the council.

Oh please, enough with the Johnny one note on your impression of the devil incarnate, Margaret Chin. We’ve been here long before her and will be after. Make an argument or sit down.

Listen we are the people; the people who live on the very sites of these proposed developments, so our fight and our approach is also grounded in the people; people with standing. So we invite you to join us - don’t get it twisted.

On Saturday, Two Bridges and Chinatown came together - a joyful, passionate action demanding the #TwoBridgesCommunityPlan a timely solution and accountability to stop the four luxury megatowers looming over our community. GOLES (Good Old Lower East Side) TUFF-LES #StoptheTowers #SaveOurHomes

We’re calling on Department of Buildings Office of New York City Comptroller Brad Lander NYC Mayor's Office of Environmental Remediation to stop Chetrit’s dangerous construction in Two Bridges. #StoptheTowers #TwoBridgesNotForSale cc: GOLES (Good Old Lower East Side) TUFF-LES @housing4allNY @ANHDNYC

ATTN: On Friday, Department of Buildings gave megadeveloper Chetrit permission to move construction materials onto the proposed Two Bridges site. So tomorrow morning, we're heading there to demand that they #CheckChetrit and revoke the permits for them to build. (cc: TUFF-LES, Yuh-Line Niou)

We’re standing with working people from Chinatown today, imploring Department of Buildings to not issue permits for a giant crater in the neighborhood’s front yard and find that no findings about neighborhood impacts = no towers can be approved.
