Joe Sitt to Red Hook.....
Menchaca gives it back defends neighborhood at public hearing
“You’ve employed some of the best architects to tell a story about how to engage water and community, but that has fallen on deaf ears in the community, for a lot of different reasons. One of those is that the community was never necessarily involved in its creation. What you see here today is something that was designed by people in a room, designers and architects inspired by their own reasons, but not necessarily with the DNA of Red Hook, the DNA of the neighborhood, and I just want to call it out.”—Council Member Carlos Menchaca, spoken after a presentation of Joe Sitt’s plans for 280 Richards Street (additional reporting page 13)
