Review & Comment: Architects and Cracks
Brooklyn Daily Eagle, Editorial
Henrik Krogius casts aside calls for an independent security analysis — despite the fact that Atlantic Terminal has already been the target of a foiled terrorist attack — and concerns that a single architect, who is known for projects plagued with curious environmental impacts, is designing the entire 22-acre Atlantic Yards project.
Why? Because if "the fear-mongering by opponents of Atlantic Yards" is allowed to prevail, "we could end up building nothing."
NoLandGrab: Krogius is being modest — one of the great fears is that we could be left with less than nothing, since Ratner is in the process of taking down every building he possibly can. This is why some local planners have continued to revise the UNITY plan in order to keep the dialog going as to what could be built on the railyards if common sense and the community were part of the equation.
