From the Daily News:The nearly bankrupt Yankee Stadium garage company could receive new taxpayer subsidies of more than $200 million if a financial bailout plan approved last month by the Bloomberg administration goes through, the Daily News has learned.
The Yankees and a billionaire Middle East sheik who is partnering with the team are proposing to pay an estimated $25 million for one of the garages currently owned by Bronx Parking Development Co. LLC — the independent firm that operates the stadium’s garage system. The Yankees partnership is proposing to demolish that garage on W. 153rd St. and build a new $350 million Major League Soccer stadium for its team, New York City FC.
But under the bailout plan approved Dec. 18 by Bronx Parking’s board of directors and the holders of its debt, the reorganized company would pay no rent until 2056 for more than 20 acres of city-owned land where its other stadium garages are located.
That’s right, no rent for the next 42 years!
There's more on the IBO blog. And this will all come down to what Melissa wants to do.

Their own part of the world is filled with starving, uneducated children! Let them invest their money there. Who needs this foreign trash?
are they taking on the debt as well?
This is just another way to cater to illegal immigration....I don't know many actual americans who even watch soccer.

I do. I suspect that there are others.
I should be able to count. I meant Anon No. 3.
As long as the Yankees partner up with these terrorists in the Bronx and not Queens, who cares.
