Well, at the Garden they're not ballin' through at 63mph three feet below the center circle either.
Stadium Discussion
- Thread starter Gene
- Start date
Just when I think we can't possibly uncover something else in regards to a stadium on this thread we now have train track shock absorbers!!! In 15 years some PhD student is going to do their thesis on this thread and analyze the actual stadium with our posts.........
They are NEVER going to get a new stadium as long as they are in NYC. NEVER. GF works for the state in real estate, planning, and zoning. Never happening.
By "they" do you mean the Cosmos? Or NYCFC?
Also your avatar photo is bringing up some emotions I've been trying to keep inside...POKU!!!
NYCFC Forums Disciplinary Committee has given you a lifetime suspension. Delete your account.
The train tracks are below ground level at MSG, and the playing surface is on the fifth floor of MSG. So there's probably a good 60-70 feet of height between the train tracks and the court/rink.
Go home, you're drunk.
Maybe we need to make a Claim Chowder thread to keep things like this handy so we can come back in a few years and check on them.
Id be concerned if she held a high-level position in the comparable City agency rather than the State's. There's not just a difference but a huge difference between the two. Working in one does not indicate an intrinsic working knowledge of the other's policies and implementations.
Unless NYCFC is positioning themselves to move forward with a plot of land jointly regulated by the City and State, then the State doesn't have the broad stroke ability to table/kill the project. They may have sway, but the City regulates land in the City.
Interesting that CFG incorporated there on 1/9/2013. Months before NYCFC was announced, and shortly after they denied they were buying into MLS (e.g. ESPN: Man City says it is not buying MLS club 12/15/2012). I suppose some careful sleuthing would have added more to the rumor mill at the time. CFG didn't register it as a foreign corp with New York until 5/7/2013 though, so would have been hard to detect
Everyone owes de Blasio an apology now that we know it's really that guy's girlfriend behind our lack of stadium updates!
If the forum (and stadium thread) existed back then, it would have been all over the news. With no acknowledgment of course.
You know, I thought that was just a joke or a funny coincidence, but from a bit of Googling that company genuinely appears to be linked to us.
The down side is that that company was registered before NYCFC was even announced, so it means nothing.
Don't worry - it's definitely them. Here's their lobbying records for the year to date: http://prtl-drprd-web.nyc.gov/lobbyistsearch/search?client=CFG+Stadium+Group+LLC

Most of this thread is #organictomatoes. Everyone is guilty.
