The free commuter paper published by Newsday was the only local daily to cover the demolition of the Ward Bakery building:
A handful residents protested in front of Ward Bread Bakery on Pacific Street Monday morning as workers began to prepare for the demolition of the structure to make way for the Atlantic Yards arena and housing project.
"It's a beautiful building and it part of the historic fabric of this neighborhood," said Patti Hagan a member of the Prospect Heights Action Coalition, a group that opposes the $4 billion megadevelopment. "To take it down is just wasteful."
