Demolition begins for Nets arena

Brooklyn Papers gets it all wrong in this misleading headline. As pointed out in a press release from Develop Don't Destroy:
"It must be made very clear to the public that this demolition and the others that may come have nothing at all to do with an approval of Ratner's proposal or the start of the project. The project's review process has barely begun and the developer faces substantial political, legal and financial obstacles in his attempt to shove his misguided plan down the throats of Brooklynites," said Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn (DDDB) spokesman Daniel Goldstein. "The community's fight to determine its future landscape and well-being is stronger than ever."
