The BPCA misinformation team does it again
Opinion January 7, 2013
BatteryPark.TV has previously exposed how the BPCA Dynamic Duo of misinformation, Matthew Monahan and Anne Fenton, have played games with the public announcements in order to diminish bad news or mislead the community over Asphalt Green. They seem to be up to their old tricks. This time, they buried an announcement of an important meeting on the BPCA website only 24 hours before the meeting.

Winners and losers if the BPCA were to be dissolved
December 4, 2013- By Steven E. Greer, MD
Over the last three years, Governors of New York have appointed three different administrations to run the Battery Park City Authority (BPCA) in Lower Manhattan, along the Hudson River. Two of the Chairmen, James Gill and Bill Thompson, abruptly resigned after scandals, and the third one, Dennis Mehiel (also the CEO), is trying to survive his own series of scandals. All three of the Presidents, James Cavanaugh, Gayle Horwitz, and Demitri Boutris, have resigned. (The departures of Boutris and Horwitz were days after exclusive reports in BatteryPark.TV of scandals.) Robert Serpico is the current “Acting President”, making him the fourth one to run the BPCA within three years.
The scandals and chaos of the BPCA are all caused by the hundreds of millions in annual budget surplus enjoyed by the BPCA, as well as the millions accruing in a “lock box” of funds. In New York, nothing attracts scandals to an agency like large piles of cash. It is Smaug to treasure.

December 30, 2012, By Steven E. Greer, MD
Bob Townley, the Executive Director of the Manhattan Youth community center on Warren Street, has been soliciting donations from the community in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. His emails state that the damage will not be covered by insurance. Mr. Townley has even gone as far as raising a few dollars via bake sales at the local schools.
