Ground shifting on Atlantic Yards?
Atlantic Yards Report
There are hints that the ground may be shifting on attitudes toward the Atlantic Yards project, at least enough that the Public Authorities Control Board (PACB) might hesitate and fail to approve the project during the waning days of the administration of Governor George Pataki.
...
The PACB, which is controlled by the governor, Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno, and Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, is supposed to vote on Atlantic Yards on Wednesday, and unanimity is required. Silver, who's generally supported the project, is under pressure to stall consideration of it until the administration of fellow Democrat Spitzer, and new revelations of drastically reduced net tax revenue may provide new ammunition.
