Approve Whole Foods in Gowanus


This petition is to allow Whole Foods in Gowanus. We applaud the commitment that Whole Foods has shown in cleaning and developing this difficult site(3rd street and 3rd avenue). Anyone faced with the challenges developing this property would need to ask for the same and ultimately need the same variances. They have proven they are socially, environmentally and economically responsible company. Gowanus needs more of this and less academic think tanks that pop up to tell others what they think without ever actually manufacturing anything other than statistics. Products sold at WHOLE FOODS are products that are responsible for thousands of jobs at hundreds of companies run by fine people. Many of these companies are local businesses. WHOLE FOODS HAS DEMONSTRATED NOTHING BUT RESPONSIBLE COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT.
