New York Council Speaker Christine Quinn is backing Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s plan for a recycling plant on the Hudson River. Quinn’s decision puts her at odds with other officials and residents who oppose the construction of the plant in Hudson River Park, according to The New York Times. Quinn said sanitation trucks already use the site on Pier 52 and the plant would not interfere with the park. Opponents say it will ruin the view and limit public access to the water.
