Last night, residents from the Lower West Side held a "mass civilian trauma exercise," where participants recreated a "field hospital" on the sidewalks outside where St. Vincent's Hospital used to operate.
The "mass civilian trauma exercise" was organised by activists, who oppose Community Board 2's lockstep effort to approve a controversial plan to rezone St. Vincent's into luxury condominiums. Bill Rudin, the head of the Rudin real estate empire, stands to sell luxury condos worth over $1 billion, if CB2 approves his rezoning application.
Brad Hoylman has been handpicked by Deputy Mayor Christine Quinn to run for City Council. As you may know, Hoylman, Quinn, and their cronies have sold out to the dark side of the Bloomberg administration, betraying progressive Democrats, their constituents, and they are strong advocates for bad development that closes hospitals, schools, and fire houses in a mass displacement of working families -- all in order to build more and more luxury condominiums.
