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

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?
