He led the fight to build Barclays Center — and now Brooklyn's biggest booster has been tapped to convince the Democratic National Committee to bring the 2016 presidential convention to the new home of the NBA's Nets.
At Mayor de Blasio's request, former Borough President Marty Markowitz is expected to meet with DNC honchos in Brooklyn Saturday to lead a PowerPoint presentation aimed at trying to convince them that the 18,000-seat arena is the perfect venue to host the convention, a de Blasio operative told The Post.
"The mayor's bringing in the big guns," said the source.
"Who can sell Brooklyn better than Marty?"
Markowitz served as Beep for 12 years before being term-limited and taking a job with de Blasio this year promoting city tourism. His successor, current Borough President Eric Adams, is also expected to attend the session with DNC officials. The session is not expected to include an arena tour.
