Opportunity Zone Boosts Bids for Hot Bronx Property
Developers bet on reaping big rewards for pouring dollars into a quickly gentrifying strip in Port Morris, thanks to a federal tax credit.

No idea if this is just regurgitating anything or new info
Looks like sloppy reporting to me. The link for “Harlem River Yards” goes to the YIMBY post from April 2018, which as we know went nowhere.Opportunity Zone Boosts Bids for Hot Bronx Property

Did it go nowhere? or was it just super preliminary? IIRC, the Club had put forth a preliminary indication of interest, but the State has yet to formalize the process for actual proposals.Looks like sloppy reporting to me.

I’d be quite surprised if we hear HRY is a real thing, but off the top of my head can’t reconstruct exactly why I thought it was really (and not just mostly) dead. We’ll see!
I’d assume that any comments given to a reporter are guarded with intimate word play. Patricof saying the site wasn’t active could mean multiple things, including that it wasn’t active but also wasn’t closed and that’s very different than not active and closed/dead end. The few conversations I ever had with him, he was always careful to hedge his answers to remain non-committal and vague while answering the gist of the question. Maybe HRY wasn’t active then but is active now?
I have no idea, really, I don’t. But I do know that word play is hyper important when on the record.
'a big announcement on the 23rd' :
Option 1: "We have made our first ever historic Eastern Conference Final"
Option 2: "We will not be playing in our first ever historic Eastern Conference Final"
BIG announcement: We will host MLS Cup in Hartford if LAFC are knocked out.
The 23rd of what month/year tho
So they are going to announce our new stadium during a game at Citi Field.
If it’s in WP, that would be apropos.
