Brooklyn Vegan directs us to a survey that the NYC Parks Department is conducting on the future of the McCarren Park Pool. If you want to see the space continue to be used for concerts and films, then fill out the form and let them know. Or you can vote to have the space turned into an actual pool.
This is from the August 1st Crain's New York Business:
$1.2 billion devoted to capital improvements in the city’s parks, part of Mr. Bloomberg’s PlaNYC. The plan includes efforts to renovate eight parks in all five boroughs, as well as initiatives to open playgrounds in school yards and plant one million trees throughout the city....a $50 million restoration of the McCarren Park Pool in Brooklyn.
So how would you like to see that $50 million spent.........

That's insane, $50 million of our money? Find sponsors for it, that shouldn't be too difficult considering the crowds it draws. Call it livenation pool or mastercard pool and stop spending our money! aaaaaah, where is the outrage!!!
