In Marty's Brooklyn!!, only a tangential mention of Atlantic Yards

Atlantic Yards Report reads the Winter 2008 issue of Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz's promotional publication Brooklyn!! online:

As in past issues, there's little mention of Brooklyn's biggest and most controversial project, Atlantic Yards, for which Markowitz is chief cheerleader. (The publication was undoubtedly produced before Forest City Ratner suspended work at the Vanderbilt Yard in December.)

On one of the two pages headlined "Marty's on the block," one photo caption describes a school playground renovated thanks to a donation from the Forest City Ratner, the New Jersey Nets, and Barclays Capital.
