YONKERS, NY -- The skies are gray and laden with rain today. The Operating Engineers who clamored for the $650 million Ridge Hill Project to come about to benefit union workers have instead been shunned from the equation as witnessed by the picket line. Forest City Ratner, developer of the Ridge Hill Project is not to blame. Just as IUPAT, the painters union, have their membership demonstrate on Hudson Street, so as to avoid being seen by a greater number of people who traverse on main Street, demonstrate that their membership is not being employed at the 66 Main Street project. The union membership may wish to direct attention to whom in their respective union has dropped the ball. Circumstances such as these do not come about without someone allegedly acquiescing to another. Acid-tongued bloggers are looking for answers. Hints anyone?
