What you see above are the envisioned transformations of two spots—the Metrotech area and the BAM Cultural District—that ran in the paper this morning.
NoLandGrab: The image on the top shows historic homes on Duffield St. swept away to make room for an underground parking garage and a park to service the nearby hotels. These homes played a part in Brooklyn's abolitionist movement, which will probably be commemorated by a plaque, or something nearly as significant, since history, especially black history, isn't as important as creating amenities for wealthy developers.
NY1 also covered the announcement and presentation [link/video (dialup/broadband)].
