Opponents Say Atlantic Yards Cutback Not Enough

WNYC News Radio

More reaction from Alantic Yards critics on the rumors of a miserly 6-8% scaledown:

Jim Vogel, spokesman for the Council of Brooklyn Neighborhoods, says the project - which would have several high rises and a sports arena -is still too big.

VOGEL: Reducing this thing by 8 percent is not going to alleviate any of those unmitigable effects - there's still going to be a great deal of negative environmental impact at the scale that is currently being proposed.
