Before "Ratner's Folly": 2Bed, 2Bath, Constant SHRIEKING Traffic
The Real Estate Observer
By Matthew Grace
If "Atlantic Yards" goes down in history as "Ratner's folly," the credit for the term goes to Matthew Grace.
The choke point at Atlantic, 4th and Flatbush is already a traffic nightmare, well before Ratner has gotten a shovel in the ground. But hey, that won't stop new luxury condo owners from flocking to Brooklyn:
Boerum Heights, the under-construction condo building on Atlantic Avenue at the intersection of Atlantic, Fourth and Flatbush avenues, is shaping up nicely. We took a look at its Web site, and there are still a few units left! But, as evidenced by the picture, traffic right now is a nightmare. Just think what it's going to be like once Ratner's folly is finally up and running.
