A Little Giff and Take for Brooklyn Pols
Brooklyn Downtown Star
by Reed Jackson
As mayoral candidate Gifford Miller is picking up endorsements from Brooklyn Democratic clubs, he dances around the issue of his support of Atlantic Yards:
Regarding one issue central to the neighborhoods surrounding Downtown Brooklyn, Forest City Ratner's plans for the Atlantic Yards, Miller delivered a somewhat more ambiguous position. "We need development of the Atlantic Yards," he asserted, "and there needs to be infrastructure." Miller said that he would try to ensure an "open, creative process to decide what's best for this site," to make sure "that whatever happens there is in the best interest of this community."
