Subject: Four Sparrow Marsh being developed
A few years ago the Department of Parks & Recreation wanted to give away several acres of Four Sparrow Marsh to developers for the creation of a mall - more specifically, an auto mall. The project was stopped when it was discovered that there was significant graft and corruption involved in this illegal seizure of public park land. See this link:

Last week I noticed that there are now bulldozers and other heavy construction vehicles working at Four Sparrow Marsh. Today I learned that Councilman Lew Fidler (District 46, D) has SOLD this "Forever Wild" property for use as an auto mall. They began work as quickly as possible, probably to avoid any public outcry. If there is any doubt that this is parkland, see this link to 31 NYC government documents related to Four Sparrow Marsh:
As soon as I get more information I will let you know what you can do to try to stop this project.
Pass the word around.
