Chief Misinformation Officer of BPCA gets 45% raise during recession
https://youtu.be/HBX3fwxZ7XE
Opinion January 20, 20131
BatteryPark.TV has previously reported on the long delays in the opening of the Asphalt Green facility caused by contract disputes between then CEO of the BPCA, Gayle Horwitz, and Asphalt Green. Hired by Ms. Horwitz, Anne Fenton was the chief architect of a lengthy misinformation strategy to explain to the outraged community that the delays were due to city permit processes, rather than the actual contract standoff.
Gayle Horwitz, and her boss, former Chairman Bill Thompson, are no longer at the BPCA. However, Ms. Fenton remains. BP.TV has exclusively obtained the details of Fenton’s salary raise. Continue reading

ConEd destroys brand new sidewalk and street in Battery Park
Update August 21, 2013- After three months of work, the new gas fittings are completed. Left standing is this new mystery monolith, like 2001 a Space Odyssey.
May 18, 2013- We asked the crew contracted by ConEd why they are digging up Battery Place yet again. The foreman explained that, after the Hurricane Sandy and electrical outages in Downtown (which did not affect Battery Park City), more nearby buildings are installing natural gas powered turbine generators as backup. The destruction of the new sidewalk by the same crew in March was simply an “exploratory” mission to find where the best location would be to install new regulators. The work ongoing is supposedly to actually install the new devices.
An employee of the Visioniare building, which is adjacent to the road excavation, had his doubts. That building already has a rooftop backup gas generator, and all of the units are powered by gas. He postulated that the older buildings across the street might need the new gas lines. Continue reading
