The Belmont Arena: If Your Construction Lasts More Than 2 Years, Call a Doctor

Pouring that giant block of concrete today, bottom middle of the screen. That’s gotta be a few hundred cy

Looks like they’re also putting down a stone base where the ice will go. Too bad we won’t be able to see them build the rink, as the walls and roof will be up when that gets started.

Maybe they can move the Earth Cam to an indoor shot when the time comes.

I certainly hope so, been in the back of my mind especially with all of the rapid progress recently

I wonder how long they’re going to wait before giving a ruling on the lawsuit. They’re almost at the point where so much has been completed that it’d be impossible to rule against it.

Isles increased in value 18% over last year. Only the Devils were higher.

Imagine what they’d be worth if they moved to Willets Point.

So much that Steve Cohen would break his agreement to buy the Mets and drain his art collection for a shot at them

Can't be lower than the current value. But I also learned in 2019 it's risky to get away from traditions (i.e: Isles in Nassau).

I doubt it.

This may be a surprise to you, but there are several numbers below 520,000,000

In Burnaby that's where the counting system starts, so you're WRONG!!!

I meant Isles franchise would be around $520,000,000 at this time, whether they move to Belmont or Citi Field parking lot.

Some lunchtime reading for our entertainment.

The memorandum of law submitted by Petitioners-Plaintiffs, Lori Halop, et al.
("Halop"
or "Petitioners") in opposition to ESD's motion to dismiss (the "Opp. Br.")¹, like their initial
submission, is an incomprehensible and meritless jumble providing no basis to deny the motions
to dismiss
Petitioners' claims. Petitioners' parkland claim continues to rely on one sole fact
that Belmont Park Racetrack includes the word
"park"
in its name. So, for that matter, do half of
all major league baseball stadium names, but no one would argue that those places constitute
public parkland. Nomenclature, even if placed on signs at entrances, does not transform a
commercial racetrack leased to a private entity into a public park subject to the public trust
doctrine. All of
petitioners' claims related to the public trust doctrine therefore should be
dismissed for failure to state a claim, based on the clear documentary and statutory evidence that
Belmont Park Racetrack has never been express or implied parkland subject to the public trust
doctrine.

We needed two biglaw firms for this? Filing this away for when a box of popcorn costs $12.

Having won a few Article 78 petitions myself, I feel pretty confident in saying that the Petitioners have a ZERO percent chance of succeeding.

Thank you. Glad to see as a layman I’m seeing the same thing as a trained lawyer.

I feel building Elmont LIRR station and lifting moratorium on natural gas will make it tough for Elmont and Floral Park.
