Developers hype their LICH bids on cable TV
BP Eric Adams moderates BRIC public access panel
A televised presentation featuring five of the bidders in SUNY’s much-disputed search for a buyer for Long Island College Hospital (LICH) is now available for viewing on BRIC’s community access Brooklyn Public Network. (See schedule below.)
Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams hosts the presentation. BP Adams said the developer’s forum was put together “in an effort to promote transparency and community engagement in the process determining the hospital’s future.
“The short time frame presents challenges,” he acknowledged.
The televised presentation is the first public airing of SUNY’s plans to sell and redevelop LICH. The number and identities of the players bidding on the site had been a closely-held secret, though some names had leaked out through back channels.
