Put a Wal-Mart on it!..........
Why os ot so hard for liberals to accept the fact that the best use for this land would be to renovate the golf course into a world-class links circuit right in the middle of Manhattan harbor. In that scenario, the historical buildings could be left alone, and the rest of the land could be left for 300 or so resort-type condos, which would sell for several million dollars each, depending on the quality of the golf course. There is also room for a resort hotel. NYC, would without question then be awarded a PGA Tour event (as a matter of fact, this is rumored to be the Westchester Classic's final year at Westchester Country Club). Donald Trump is incredibly annoying, but he could get this done yesterday. And the added revenue to NYC would be substantial.
