Reply to comment by bitfriend6 in NYC jail complex to be restored into citywide green energy hub by geoxol
>all it'll do is move the jail and it's problems
The point of closing that specific jail is indeed to not have that specific jail anymore. Doesn't seem like a problem to me.
>Greenwashing a former prison as an "energy hub" is NIMBYism
Putting it on Riker's will let the city decommission other, older waste facilities which are (shocker) in low-income neighborhoods.
>as there's so many other places within NYC for an "energy hub"
Where do you think it should be instead?
And what do you think Riker's island should be used for?
>This is certainly a good thing and Rikers is a good option for it, but let's not pretend like it's green.
Except it is green. Don't let the enemy of progress be perfection.
>This will be a literal trash island with 200+ trucks servicing it daily
Those trucks are going to exist whether Riker's island is used or not.

Tractors and farm equipment aren’t included in this. Farmers will be fine.
