Atlantic Yards Car Roast: It’s a Beemer!
Gowanus Lounge
Forget the news about eminent domain suits and new estimates for a possible opening of the Nets Arena. Here’s some very compelling and current Atlantic Yards-related imagery. This is a toasted BMW 5 Series. The GL reader who sent it writes: “sucks for them. spotted at the 6th avenue bridge over atlantic yards (two blocks from the dean street fire station).”
NoLandGrab: More evidence of "footprint blight?" Or a metaphor for Bruce Ratner's chances of securing arena financing? No word as to whether the car might have been saved by Dean Street firefighters had they not needed to take a circuitous route due to street closings "necessitated" by Atlantic Yards infrastructure work.
