Natural History Museum Expansion Foes Target Councilwoman, Community Board
(DNAINFO) Emily Frost | January 6, 2016 — A group of residents opposed to the expansion of the American Museum of Natural History who first took aim at museum board member Tina Fey are now targeting Community Board 7 and City Councilwoman Helen Rosenthal.
The group, led by resident Cary Goodman, has demanded that the board take a stance on the proposed $325 million expansion at a full board meeting Tuesday. Some locals have opposed the expansion plan because it could result in the loss of trees and green space in an adjacent public park.
