Con Ed’s move also wipes out his ability to eventually buy the substation building, where the Park51 developers have converted the first floor into a prayer space. They turned the first floor of the adjoining building into a cultural center and recently debuted their first event, a photography exhibit.

Any more news on the plans to open a gay bar catering to jihadist rump rangers called "Suspicious Packages" nearby? Now that there may be space available, this may be the time to move forward!

What a joke! $2800 a month for a large, attractive building in that hallowed ground. The cheezy, corrupt, greasy dead-eyed imam can’t come up with that? Or is he just dissing the infidels? I pay about $300 less for our tiny place!
