News: Queens Tribune Sings Praises of Willets Point Plan

The Queens Tribune runs a great, concise editorial singing the praises of the Mayor’s plan for Willets Point. It briefly discusses Bloomberg’s overall record as Mayor and his ups and downs with his major development projects throughout the city.

The editors point out,

We believe the mayor’s true mark would be taking the blighted area of Willets Point and converting it into a vibrant community space with affordable housing, commerce, parks and quality schools.

And goes on to conclude with,

Mr. Mayor, the city’s most dynamic borough deserves this and we ask you to make Willets Point happen.

This is the kind of language I love to hear, especially coming from a paper that speaks to the people of the borough of Queens.  What they’ve written has been said before, but I really like to see it published.  Hopefully, people get behind an editorial like this and voice their support to the Mayor.
