Deutsche Bank Building Back In the News
An informal meeting about the planned demolition of the Deutsche Bank building at the WorldTradeCenter site turned into a shouting match Monday.
Members of the community were upset that Lower Manhattan Development Corporation officials would not hold a public question and answer session about the demolition project. Some of the neighbors fear contaminants will be released when the building is torn down.
“The community needs to be given an opportunity to continue to ask questions – and hard questions – about this very difficult subject,” said Julie Menin of Community Board 1.
“Following a total decontamination, a responsible program for deconstruction is then undertaken, answering the public questions of the entire community,” said protester Robert Gulack.
The Deutsche Bank building has remained empty since it was damaged in the September 11th terrorist attacks
