If I were the city I’d tell Bezos to go fuck himself and go find a ship builder that doesn’t have to take apart bridges in order to get his boat out to sea.
This is just another example of the uber rich getting what they want just because they have the money to do it. I mean, come on, really? You want the city to dismantle a bridge so you can get your boat out? To me that just sounds like piss poor planning to have it built where you can’t get it out.
I hope the city denies him the request. See what he does then. I’m sure there are plenty of other ship builders in the world where he could have a quality boat build that doesn’t require the removal of city infrastructure to move it to sea.
Just because you have money doesn’t mean that the world has to bow to your wants.
