Atlantic Yards lexiconography
To gauge the public's perception of, and feelings about, Bruce Ratner's controversial Atlantic Yards plan, we keep an eye on the adjectives attached to the project in the mainstream media and the blogosphere.
Today, "the inflammatory Atlantic Yards" is offered as a wayfinder for Unnameable, a great neighborhood used bookstore.
Evoking fears of PID (guys click here), maybe the rage against Ratner's megaproject could be called AYID (Atlantic Yards Inflammatory Disease).
Some say that Brooklyn is the city’s most literary borough. And where do all of those well-read people take their excellent used books? To Unnameable, of course, just around the corner from the inflammatory Atlantic Yards. With a cluttered, top-shelf inventory that could keep you reading great tomes for the next decade, this is a definite boon to Brooklyn’s literati.
