Ms. Fields later issued her own Borough President's resolution approving the proposal with conditions. Betrayal is a feeble description. If this is indicative of how she relates to communities. By that I meant that affordable housing and neighborhood stability are essential for artists. The breach of the Clinton Special District will dissemble that possibility for many.

Commercial theatre does not. More appropriately, perhaps, hard-ship cases make the Titanic. I urge you to plan developments in this neighborhood with the involvement of our Community Boards, to conduct environmental impact analyses, and to limit the transfer of air rights to the current theatre subdistrict. As a homeowner I do not want our neighborhood to become more crowded and the precious slice of sky I can see out of my window to be eliminated. I vehemently oppose changing the zoning to allow skyscrapers west of 8th Avenue.
