Brookfield Properties spent a lot of time pressuring the mayor's office to evict Occupy Wall Street protesters from Zuccotti Park, which it owns. But maybe it'd have had more luck just paying the $139,000 it owes in back taxes?

Looks like Brookfield Properties' planned 7 A.M. cleaning of Zuccotti Park—headquarters for the Occupy Wall Street movement—has been postponed, meaning that the protesters and their tarps can stay. And Russell Simmons won't have to go to jail!
