The headline says it all.
NoOne's comment says more:
This goes beyond complete disregard for the community. The timing has to have been intentional; they are leaving no stone unturned in their effort to AVOID the community and ram this down our throats.
Developer Forest City Ratner, NY City and NY State have been taking a build-it-and-they-will-come attitude about the Atlantic Yards project. But how will "they" get there?
Probably slowly if the City doesn't get off it's duff and come up a comprehensive plan with innovative solutions for traffic and transportation in Brooklyn.
Today, StreetsBlog posted information regarding a "strongly worded letter," drafted by the Tri-State Transportation Campaign and signed by 28 neighborhood organizations, "urging Mayor Bloomberg to 'formulate and implement a thorough, urgent traffic management and relief strategy' for Brooklyn."
