None of the presentations are being conducted in the Polish and Latino sections of Greenpoint. Most of the surveys were done online without any addresses to confirm who the respondents are. OSA probably faked the online responses to get the results they wanted. Not an organization to trust!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27072046.post-91580740690270960922008-02-13T15:01:00.000-05:002008-02-13T15:01:00.000-05:00"The Parks Department believes that a disproportionate number were filled out at, well, concerts at the pool, overstating support for shows."<BR/><BR/>What's the point of doing a survey if you're just going to reinterpret it when you don't like the results? <BR/><BR/>In other words, if the survey showed support for a pool, the Parks department would have touted the survey. Since the survey showed overwhelming support for concerts, the parks department simply minimized the survey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27072046.post-3024652436817375942008-02-13T13:19:00.000-05:002008-02-13T13:19:00.000-05:00have you ever check out the East River Park Amphitheater?<BR/><BR/>it is sorely underused/underpublicized, but a beautiful space right on the river.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
