Elena Conte, Organizer for Public Policy Programs, Pratt Center for Community Development, and Joan Byron, Director of Policy, Pratt Center, were quoted in a WNYC story on the Sheridan Expressway in the Bronx borough of New York City. Activists have been working on a plan to tear the highway down and redevelop the site as residential and park land. The city, meanwhile, has removed the plan from consideration due to traffic concerns.
