NEW YORK (AP) - Mayor Michael Bloomberg blasted the developer of the World Trade Center site in comments to a newspaper editorial board, saying space at ground zero might be better used for schools and residential buildings than office towers.
The New York Daily News reported in Sunday's editions that Bloomberg told its editorial board it would be in the city's best interest "to get Silverstein out" of the project, referring to developer Larry Silverstein.
Bloomberg said in the meeting Friday it would be a good idea to remove Silverstein, who holds a 99-year lease on the twin towers site, but "nobody can figure out how to do it."
