Brooklyn Banks... Death Row

So the Brooklyn Banks is closing in December apparently...  When I first heard about this I sort of wrote it off thinking, nobody could take this spot away!  But it's happening, so that the brooklyn bridge can be beautified, or gentrified, or modified, it's pretty shitty.  The city needs space, and generally nobody cares about skateboarders, so lets take their place!  They should take that dumb tai chi matt or whatever the hell it is up top.

There has been a lot of history at the banks, but none important to the city.  And again more quotes from douche-bags who think they understand skateboarders and their "Rebel" image.  

"The Downtown Express reports that Una Perkins, a board member, said she was worried that the unsupervised teens were running across the Brooklyn Bridge ramps and could get hurt and John Fratta, chairperson of the board’s Seaport/Civic Center Committee, added the skateboarders were “way out of control.”"

Yup, those damn skateboarders running around on the bridge on ramps... definately out of control!!

Idiots should know the on-ramp ollie section of the bridge was closed LONG ago.  That doesn't even happen anymore!
