The New Jane Jacobs

Majora%20reduced.JPG

The Real Estate is going for a Robert Moses trifecta this morning. This item's about one of his newer critics, Bronx community organizer Majora Carter, who dared criticize Mayor Bloomberg's development policies and who received a warm response from the media at the Feb. 1 opening of the Moses exhibit at the Museum of the City of New York.

The notice above, received via e-mail from Ms. Carter herself, says it all--including the fact that the museum is showing itself pretty receptive to airing all sides of the story.
