\"Patch<\/a> Fort Green \/ Clinton Hill Patch reports in an April 23 2011 story – National Guard Backs Out of Preserving Any of Admiral\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Row<\/a> that, predictably, the National Guard – owners of the Admirals Row heritage site – having blocked immediate preservation efforts<\/a> – are now claiming that the buildings are beyond repair.<\/p>\n

Patch notes that the City and Brooklyn Navy Yard are powerless to intervene until title transfer, meanwhile the city’s development plan is undermined by a corruption scandal involving the developer.<\/p>\n

Patch quotes Navy Yard spokesman Shane Kavanagh, who urges that the National Guard transfer title immediately, and provide $2 million to “stabilize” the buildings already designated for preservation.<\/p>\n
