AY information for BUILD invitees, but not for thee
We're tempted to file this dispatch from Atlantic Yards Report under "Humor," as journalist Norman Oder is barred, invited and then tossed from the ATLANTIC YARDS INFORMATION CENTER before the start of a meeting sponsored by Brooklyn United for Innovative Local Development, billed as "Connect to CBA Opportunities."
Actually, Oder was initially barred because he "wasn't on the list," but BUILD head James Caldwell, being a perfect gentleman, invited the frequent project critic to attend. Before the Atlantic Yards Reporter could find a seat, Caldwell was sent back as the hatchet man, explaining that he had been overruled (by whom we wonder?) and that Oder had to leave.
Oder did return to the mall with his camera to take some photos of the signs directing people to the information center.
