Julie Satow wrote a fair profile of Amanda Burden. I feel like she introduced who she was, where she came from and gave us a little background history on Burden. Satow did not just jump into what Burden was doing with the New York City Project. First she mentioned her qualifications, her family background, and how she stumbled upon this task. Satow used percentages to show how much of New York Burden rezoned and was knowledgable about how many blocks were covered in her zoning plans. Satow was also aware of all the things Burden did in each neighborhood.
I liked how Satow gave two sides to the story. At first, I thought she was only going to write about the positive things but I was pleasantly surprised. Satow broke down both perspectives first because otherwise it would seem she was attacking her. This way Satow seemed unbiased and more informative.
I don’t feel Satow revealed her own point-of-view. I feel she did a lot of research, wrote facts and had many sources. Having a variety of sources backed up the points she was making. Satow spoke to people from community boards, tenants’ association, and the Regional Plan Association. I don’t think she left anyone out and depicted everyone’s point-of-view.
To me it seems like Burden is the right person for the job. I must admit she had for a lot accomplished, especially with High Line park. Burden appears to be a no nonsense taking woman who is focused on getting things done. She seems to have everything planned out and is very meticulous when it comes to how she wants neighborhoods to look. I feel she has a vision to make the city a better place for the future. Burden is very passionate about what she does and hopes to achieve everything she has set out to do.
