Dazed and Confused 

Construction of the Freedom Tower has stalled. Real Estate Developer, Larry Silverstein, holds the 99-year lease on the World Trade Center site. Mayor Bloomberg doesn't want Silverstein involved in the project at all.



"It would be in the city's interest to get Silverstein out," Mr. Bloomberg was quoted as saying in an article in The Daily News yesterday. He said the plan to build as much as 10 million square feet of office space on the site might force "a kind of construction which maybe the marketplace doesn't want." The mayor suggested adding housing to the mix.





Silverstein responded by calling the Mayor's remarks, "Confusing."

What a great response. Silverstein could have responded and said that Mayor Bloomberg's remarks were short-sighted, misinformed, misleading, or just plain incorrect. Instead he said they were confusing. Just perfect.

Silverstein has my vote, should he decide to run for anything.
