We don't want to stop the Yankees from developing their stadium, we just do not want them to do it on the public parks.

The Yankees have been here for 82 years already and we haven't seen any benefits. It's a land grab in the poorest congressional district in the country for the richest sports franchise.

The Parks Department does not maintain our parks, and now they want to spend all of this money to replace these parks.
