So there is the possibility that in the future it might change. But in any event I am willing to take it. Making it a public area versus where two dozen car parking spaces were previously is okay in my book! :) Mike,

Instead of planting grass, let's paint the asphalt green! Instead of planting trees, let's drop in some planters! Is that the best they can do? Pearl Street: underwhelming.

Could anyone tell me where that green--literally, the color green--place in DUMBO is? I'd like to see it for myself, it looks so great! Neat vid!

I love the up-to-the-minute video coverage -- I think you should definitely keep doing shorts like this. Great video Clarence.
