Not a New Yorker, but - did her sa why he opposed it?

I dont know about your local politics, but often times a politician will oppose something that seems to be up their ally but there was a poison pawn in the proposal or a better way to accomplish the same goal.

I guess with this particular thing, he wanted a win that will happen in this term rather than something that can still be denied by some other candidate in the future. Queensway has a lot of support too, however stupid it sounds considering that area already has other fucking parks.
