The gloves are off over a controversial proposal to build a glitzy $12 billion casino complex in Hudson Yards — with local hard hats pitted against lovers of the High Line.
The Building and Construction Trades Council is set to hold a “We Build” rally Thursday in support of Related Companies/Wynn Resorts’ job-creating plan for a casino, office and housing complex at the Manhattan site.
In its lead-up to the rally, the construction union bashed Friends of the High Line, the non-profit that runs the stunning nearby elevated public park with the city and claims the plan’s massive skyscrapers will negatively impact the famous open space.
