Don't hate me b/c I want to buy near AY
Brownstoner

A Park Slope renter is close to making an offer on an apartment in the Newswalk building which is surrounded on three sides by the planned Atlantic Yards project and wants to know what the future might hold.
I have (mostly) decided to buy an apartment that, yes, overlooks the Atlantic Yards site on the Carlton side. I know all the arguments and don't want to wake that monster. I am more hoping that someone has an update on the status of the project since the last round of information that came out around April- the redesign, the problems with funding and the tax issues. Does anyone know anything more current about the status and whether/when the construction is likely starting on the stadium and when/if you think the other buildings are going to be built. Or is it just anyone's guess at this point?
