Expanding Downtown Confronts Residential Neighborhoods Already Changing from Within
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle discusses the history of development in what they call "Downtown Brooklyn" as well as Ratner's unpopular role within it.
Fort Greene and Prospect Heights have not been prepared for the change coming their way. What is happening is that downtown Brooklyn is expanding eastward in a big way. A new culture center, the Downtown Brooklyn Plan and the Atlantic Yards proposal are all, in comparison with other past projects, rather overwhelming.
