Andy floats 2nd try for Diller park

BILLIONAIRE BARRY Diller has decided to take another shot at developing his $250 million park in the Hudson River — thanks to some cajoling from Gov. Cuomo.

Diller opted to revive the project after Cuomo persuaded key opponents of the Pier 55 project to put aside their legal challenges.

“I have spoken to the parties involved in the lawsuit against Pier 55 and expressed my belief that cooperative efforts to complete the overall park are more constructive than litigation and stalemate,” Cuomo said.

“We have had productive conversations and it has been agreed that the legal dispute commenced by the City Club will cease, Pier 55 will go forward, and we will work cooperatively to complete the full vision for the park.” Diller, in a statement issued through Cuomo’s office, hailed Cuomo’s efforts and said he would “make one last attempt” to construct the park.

“We’ll need to reinstate our agreements with the Hudson River Park Trust, with the state and federal agencies that had given us permits . . . we’ll need to know that the plaintiffs will not reinstate their litigation,” Diller said. “And with all that, we’ll joyfully proceed.”
