Community Board One Preview


It's a beetle invasion!, lots of sidewalk cafes, and the irrepressible Rich Mazur tonight at Community Board 1. Because Community Board 1 reminds me of living in a yellow submarine.
Meanwhile, at the same time, a big protest will erupt at 8 PM at 106 Ross Street, the home of Rose Plaza developer Isack Rosenberg. Sample lines from the flyer:
"Money hungry developers are bringing in the heart of Williamsburg 800 apartments for yuppies/ artists on the property of Certified lumber... they're also writing in their plans that a beach will be built there, G-D Foebid (sic)! People of Williamsburg! Let's gather and not allow this money-hungry person, to destroy our city!"
The Land Use Committee vote is tomorrow.

Speaking of the beetles, did you know that Public Assembly is featuring a series of shows known as "Beatles Burlesque?" (Ya' know -- the denuding of Greenpoint's greenery...)
