tldr; we're doing a public study on dual power and being again. Much love to all those we struggled alongside over the years, you helped get us to this point. 1/2

@Dianne4NYC @ztalpnielk @sunnysideyards @infopobn @fuelgrannie @jqllc If you cant be honest about how these programs provide cover for the predatory housing practices of Phipps Houses, the parent corporation, then youre lying from the get go. Being real about these facts though undercut your campaign narrative so you give talking points instead.

@ztalpnielk @sunnysideyards @infopobn @fuelgrannie @jqllc I led Phipps Neighborhoods – a separate entity from Phipps Houses – where I built anti-poverty programs for Black and Brown families. I'm running for mayor to address the root causes of these problems. I have always opposed displacement and other problematic housing practices.

@fuelgrannie @JimmyVanBramer @OpenNYForAll @JimmyVanBramer its great that you opposed these projects in a piecemeal fashion, but at the heart of the matter is the zoning law which you yourself passed. To this date no politician has stepped up to suggest an alternative. Until then we all remain at risk getting of zoned out

@QueensAntiGen @JimmyVanBramer @OpenNYForAll in jimmy's defense, he has pushed back solidly on recent projects (yourlic, innovationqns), loudly & surely on community board calls as well as social media: my suspicion is that he's not ready to make a statement because he may still be getting intel from many parties, all sides

4 or 5 years ago community members shut down one of the 1st MIH rezonings, pressuring the developer to withdraw the application. Now, with @JimmyVanBramer on his way out, they're back again with the same nonsense. No doubt JVB told Phipps to come back in a few years & try again.
Stop Sunnyside Yards@sunnysideyards

Good day Sunnyside, Woodside, etc.! So, Adam Weinstein, NYC's 11th worst landlord LY from Phipps Houses, is back in the 'hood trying to upzone under @NYCMayor's corrupt MIH. newyorkyimby.com/2020/10/afford…

@Alp_B @fuelgrannie @JimmyVanBramer @OpenNYForAll Another big problem is that the entire affordable housing scheme is centered on MIH with the smallest number of units going to 60% AMI. That means there's literally no affordable housing being built for people below that income level, it's designed that way.

@fuelgrannie @JimmyVanBramer @OpenNYForAll Yeah one idea is that JVB told them he'd approve it on his way out, or maybe they see what direction things are headed in and wanna make a move while they're still a semi-friendly politician there. Either way, this shows developers play a long-term game, so we have to also

@QueensAntiGen @JimmyVanBramer or maybe phipps is back at it because jvb is term-limited this project is also a honey of nyc yimby and @opennyforall: even though none of them live in queens, they have long screamed about how much they want to see this built it's telling what they fixate on

In 2017 @bradlander took donations from 21 executives from the Related Companies, 6 from Two Trees, and 5 from Silverstein, in addition to a host of other real estate associated donors for a total of over $130K. We have the receipts. pardonmeforasking.blogspot.com/2020/08/counci…

@nora_almeida @OpenNYForAll @REBNY @BrooklynCB6 I don't take campaign contribs from @rebny or real-estate developers. And we've put huge effort into inclusive community planning. You're welcome of course to question my motives here. But it won't change that they are equity, sustainability, community, and what I think is right.
