http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/06/nyregion/06demolish.html?hp=&pagewanted=all excerpts: Prospect Plaza — three 12- to 15-story towers in Brownsville — is plagued by neither despair nor poverty: It has been vacant since 2003, when the last tenants were moved out with the promise they could return to refurbished apartments. Agency officials say they want to tear down the 35-year-old buildings and erect new apartments in their place. The new apartments — including public and private housing, not only for the poor but also for low-income and moderate-income families — are likely to be built in low-rise buildings.

This story reads like an invitation to the FB of I's forensic accounting division, for both past and future actions, methinks. That's the only approach that will clean up NYCHA.
