SUPPORTING & OPPOSING ATLANTIC YARDS
This week, City Limits publishes two viewpoints on Atlantic Yards.
SUPPORTING ATLANTIC YARDS:
'SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH HOUSING IN BROOKLYN'
The executive director of NY ACORN argues that the plan’s superior affordable housing provisions require citizens “to take yes for an answer.” — By Bertha Lewis, Executive Director, ACORN NY
OPPOSING ATLANTIC YARDS:
'FAILS TO ACCOMPLISH A DELICATE BALANCE'
The president of the Municipal Art Society challenges residents to hold out for the high standards of planning, design, housing -- and democratic public process -- the city deserves. — By Kent Barwick, President, Municipal Art Society (MAS)
