Sitt Declares War on Red Hook Waterfront Rats

The ongoing super slow motion demolition of the Revere Sugar Plant in Red Hook by developer Joe Sitt and his firm Thor Equities have the local rodent population up in arms. Beard Street now features about a dozen skull and crossbones signs (specimen above) and big-ass rat bait traps. We've always found that skull and crossbones signs lend a special certain something to the streetscape. In any case, the after-dark Thor Equities Rat Olympics on Beard Street are a thing to behold.
