Ha. Well okay, I can see why they'd want free land in the city. So do I.
I didn't know/had forgotten that they expected to be gifted that whole parcel in the "West Village". I thought they were just angling for a cheap rink and football stadium and were pitching the development to the south as a sort of "if we build it they will come, and the city benefits" kind of a deal.
