Newsday: West is Not Best
In today's Newsday Opinion column Corey Bearak writes "Best site is Willets Point, not the West Side". Bearak goes on to argue most of the covered points about money for schools and public funding of a private venture.
"This part of Queens has what the far West Side lacks: two interstate highways (the Van Wyck and the Long Island Expressway), one limited-access highway (the Grand Central), subway and rail, and even ferry access. Mets owner Fred Wilpon has already envisioned a baseball stadium invoking Ebbets Field to replace the aging Shea Stadium. Adjacent facilites for football and baseball would help the city promote its Olympic bid and provide an appropriate New York home for the Jets and a new field for the Mets."
