      <![CDATA[Oh, and note who advocates and positively comments on hotel development in the neighborhood, even saying, dear God in heaven, that new luxury hotel development in Williamsburg is somehow in any way "for the locals," even in minute part: <a href="http://brooklynpaper.com/stories/34/45/dtg_walentashotelupdate_2011_11_11_bk.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://brooklynpaper.com/stories/34/45/dtg&hellip;</a><br>
<br>
That's right, NAG officials. So please, the some/one of you on this thread, and the many of you who read, and the more of you who live in the area, who somehow believe NAG and the People's Firehouse are not principals in the gentrification of the area--PLEASE.

      <![CDATA[@yo yo pa, please read more carefully: "The proposed 86,000 square foot, 440-foot-tall tower is comprised of three 16-foot deep vertical slabs and joins a recently announced 40-story rental tower designed by FX Fowle nearby on the waterfront as the latest high-rise planned for the neighborhood."

      <![CDATA[The fallacy in the archibabble, as you noted, ""the tower mixes height and materiality to form a relationship with the surrounding neighborhood" [a total crock of shit], is that the "height" and "materiality" is not confined to the strictly linear dimension considered. A true mixture of height and materiality would have also included the width of the Sky above the mixture, the depth of the surfaces beneath, and the breadth of human sight--the proffered mixture is insufficient.
