Delay? It's about winning.
The folks from Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn would like to remind Bruce Ratner that thousands of people haven't donated money to "delay" the controversial subsidy-sucking Atlantic Yards megaproject, they're actually trying to win.
...the lawsuit is an effort to protect the homes and businesses in the project footprint from being seized by New York State and given to Bruce Ratner. The owners and tenants filed their suit to win it and keep their properties.
So, while Ratner talks about a "six month delay" (based on a lawsuit that won't be resolved for at least 9 months) what he fails to consider is that the plaintiffs could win their suit and intend to.
