Atlantic Yards News: NY Papers Applaud Supreme Court Decision in Atlantic Yards Favor
 |
"In Atlantic Yards Favor?" We think they meant "In Atlantic Yards's Favor," but yes, the Supreme Court (excepting, at minimum, Justice Samuel Alito) did do Atlantic Yards a favor in not taking Goldstein v. Pataki. And the Daily News and the Post did Forest City Ratner a favor, too, by penning editorials that saved the company's PR department from having to come up with something of their own.
Yesterday's U.S. Supreme Court decision put an end to the federal lawsuit opposing Atlantic Yards by challenging eminent domain, eliminating what was potentially the most serious remaining legal hurdle for the project. The New York Post and Daily News weigh in today with editorials applauding the decision and calling for Atlantic Yards to move forward.
