Pretty sure I did that one once, although after 724 pages of this I can't really be certain any more, ya know?

Please ignore the below I misread the article on the subway.
I am not sure if this was previously posted, but I came across this article. If the Willets Point site is a viable option, it appears that the City would need to first exercise a call option to take back the 17 acres that is currently under the control Queens Development Group. The deadline to do so is Dec 31, 2018. I don't think the QDG, a joint venture between the Related Companies and the Mets-controlled Sterling Equities will do a deal with NYCFC. As the Mets would prefer the parking for Delta Air as according to the Crain's article on or around September 15, stated that they Mets and Delta have an agreement to use Citi Field Parking, but if there parking across the street, then Delta would prefer to use that.

This article is contemplating just a 2-acre sliver of Willets Point though, no? Not all 17 acres in Willets East.
I’m now a huge supporter or Willets Point United. Where do I purchase their jersey?
I am sorry. Now that you pointed that out you are correct. I was reading 1B as the 17 acres and not the 2. Thanks for pointing it out.
And another club passes us by.
We get to keep our baseball stadium and pay a huge mark up for playoff tickets.
I'm not disagreeing with you, but let's wait a bit to see where this ends up. We all remember the initial Audi Field renderings and where it landed in the end (which obviously, I'd take over a baseball stadium - just wanted to point out that as great as this looks now, it probably won't be quite as sexy).
I meant passed us in building a SSS first. And wait till we eventually have renderings. We’ll have the same end result where the final product doesn’t match up. I believe Ulrich wrote at least 3 pages on this one subject a couple years back.

We brought in Pep G's right hand man, and it definitely wasn't as sexy as we had been led to believe.
That's why you need to change it up every once in a while with the left, also known as The Stranger. I can do Tinder jokes all. day.
Why? The NYCFC is the only and true soccer club in NYC!!!!
