Opponents Make Last-Ditch Effort To Stall Atlantic Yards Plan
NY Sun
Three years to the day since developer Forest City Ratner unveiled plans for the $4.2 billion Atlantic Yards project in Brooklyn, opponents are asking members of the Public Authorities Control Board to postpone the project’s final approval, which could come at a meeting next Wednesday. Opponents – including civic groups and some local elected officials – said at City Hall yesterday that the environmental review of the 8 million square-foot project was flawed and incomplete, and that the public costs had not been properly measured. A postponement would give the incoming Spitzer administration the opportunity to review the plan.
