LITTLE RICH BOY LOSES

After the New York City Council limits The Big Apple’s Madison Square Garden special permit to a mere five years, Jimmy is pissed.

He is executive chairman and chief executive officer of Madison Square Garden Sports and Madison Square Garden Entertainment, and executive chairman of MSG Networks. As the company's chairman, Dolan oversees all operations within the company and supervises the day-to-day operations of its professional sports teams, the New York Knicks and New York Rangers as well as their regional sports networks, which include MSG Network and MSG Plus. Dolan was previously CEO of Cablevision, founded by Chuck Dolan, but sold to French telecom Altice.

Madison Square Garden, known as the Garden or by its initials #MSG, is an NYC indoor venue. It is located in Midtown Manhattan between Seventh and Eighth Avenues from 31st to 33rd Street above Pennsylvania Station.

James Dolan’s playpen arena sought permanent residency atop Penn Station, but it’s not going to be happening any time soon. https://therealdeal.com/new-york/2023/08/28/city-council-renews-madison…

Monday's City Council meeting ended in extending MSG's special operating permit above Penn Station another 5 years, but after that, the iconic arena might need to relocate entirely.

City Council Shortens Leash on MSG, Gives It 5 Years Only on New Special Permit

The City Council voted to limit a new special permit for Madison Square Garden to only five years is a blow to MSG CEO James Dolan who had sought to have it extended forever. The vote also goes against the recommendation of the City Planning Commission which urged a ten-year extension. But it is a victory for City Councilman Erik Botcher and other community activists who want MSG to move from atop Penn Station so the rail hub can be redeveloped. https://www.otdowntown.com/news/city-council-shortens-leash-on-msg-give…

“He Is Known for Being Petty”: James Dolan’s Madison Square Garden Saga Is Getting Messier by the Minute

Dolan’s use of facial-recognition technology to kick his enemies out of his venue has gotten him on the bad side of state and city lawmakers, and drawn the attention of the state attorney general, all as New York City looks to move Madison Square Garden to a new location. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/02/james-dolan-madison-square-gard…
