"Whole and complete"? A jaw-dropping AY fib from 2003
Atlantic Yards Report
From a 12/10/03 Forest City Ratner press release announcing the Atlantic Yards project:
The complex has been planned to look whole and complete during each phase of construction. (Emphasis added)
If so, then what was all that stuff in the Atlantic Yards Environmental Impact Statement about?
As noted, buildings would slowly replace parking as the project proceeds. The construction schedule indicates much incompleteness, as does the map of buildings that would be finished year after year.
NoLandGrab: Atlantic Yards watchdogs have observed Forest City Ratner making stuff up even when it didn't have to. It's like a lifestyle choice. Why should a 2003 press release be any different?
