Joining of hands on Ratner's site
NY Daily News
Denis Hammil's report from the opening of Cold Stone Creamery in the Atlantic Terminal Mall:
Teenagers with vital summer jobs literally sang his praises.
Then the Rev. Herbert Daughtry gave him his blessing.
On top of that, Bertha Lewis, one of the most vocal tenant rights activists in the city and president of ACORN - Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now - was on hand to support real estate developer and Nets owner Bruce Ratner's quest to build a 20,000-seat arena and 4,500 units of housing, 50% of which will be "affordable," on the site of the Atlantic Yards in Brooklyn.
Could it get any better than this for Ratner?
