After years of competing visions, proposals, community battles and governmental compromises, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and City Council Speaker Christine Quinn yesterday (Tuesday) joined developer Steven Ross to break ground on the long-awaited project that will eventually become Hudson Yards.
