Its about a controversial mega-development, including a sports arena, that will change the character of a neighborhood forever. Battle for Brooklyn is the story of residents who stood up to defend their neighborhood, and asserted their rights to some level of self-determination for their communitys fate. I wont tell you how it ends, says LA Neighbors United Founder Cary Brazeman writing on his personal blog (<http://simplesend.com/simple/t.asp?S=283&ID=47376&NL=8047&N=60337&SI=3762705&URL=http://www.carybrazeman.com>www.carybrazeman.com), except to say that the development site, which was declared blighted and condemned, may remain a mega-parking lot for years to come the poster child of eminent domain abuse. Out of the fire emerged a local citizens group, Develop Dont Destroy Brooklyn that united 21 community organizations to voice their opposition to the project and propose an alternative plan.
