Real Deal podcast tackles Atlantic Yards

Daniel Goldstein lives in the middle of what would be one of the biggest developments in New York history - the Atlantic Yards project. He won't make way, and here's why.

But Goldstein stayed in the now empty, stripped-bare building with a faulty elevator, awaiting a legal showdown and helping run Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn, a group opposed to the Atlantic Yards project in its current form. That form would make it easily one of the biggest single developments in New York history.

In a recent podcast with The Real Deal, Goldstein talked about why his group is opposed to Atlantic Yards - but not necessarily opposed to development in downtown Brooklyn.
