Have the preservationists fighting to save the Methodist Church conceded defeat? Next Saturday the Committee to Save the Green Church will stage a mock New Orleans style funeral outside the church on the corner of Ovington and 4th.
“We are mourning the destruction of the three buildings, including the magnificent church, the removal of 211 people’s remains, and the negative impact this demolition will have on the neighbors.”"Mourning the destruction!?"
Sounds like an admission of defeat if ever I heard one.

I don't think this is an admission of defeat, just another way to try to get more attention from the community about how this will affect them.
Even if they do not see saving the church as important, has anyone thought about the quality of life issues a 7 foot, 50 unit condo will create.
I am glad I no longer ride the subway to work (R) train or have to worry about overcrowding in the schools. I also do not have a car, so for me parking is not an issue.
For many, these issues will become inportant if this condo is built.
I would suggest that they consider these issues.

How wonderful for YOU!
Why didn't they plan this on Mardi Gras?
This could be an excellent bit of street theater, a new thing for Bay Ridge. I hope to be there.
Yes!
Long live Professor Longhair and Al Hirt!
Will Dr. John be there?
Zydeco in Bay Ridge!
