YOU are DAMN CLUELESS. Robert Moses DROVE the Dodgers from Brooklyn NOT Walter. Get historically educated!
I agree with you. O’Malley tried very hard to privately acquire public land near the train terminal and build a new stadium there. Moses was adamant that he wanted a new stadium in Queens or there would be no new stadium. O’Malley was adamant that the team stay in Brooklyn in a new stadium or he would consider the offer from Los Angeles. Moses aggressively thwarted O’Malley at every turn leaving him with no alternative but to consider all options outside of New York.
In the end, Moses got his ballpark in Queens (Shea Stadium) and he got rid of O’Malley whom he despised.
