Opponents To File Suit On Atlantic Yards

NY Sun

A pre-announcement item also made it onto page 2 of today's Sun, which has provided its readers with regular coverage on Atlantic Yards, including last week's stunning announcement that NY State officials never reviewed a comprehensive financial plan for Bruce Ratner's project:

Opponents of the $4 billion Atlantic Yards project planned for Brooklyn are filing a new lawsuit against the state and developer Forest City Ratner.

If successful, the opponents could push the Spitzer administration to do a new review of the project, which was approved late last year before Governor Pataki left office.

The suit challenges the state's environmental impact statement, according to a project opponent, Daniel Goldstein.
