DDDB.net, Forest City Quarterly Results Claim Arena Construction Would Start in 2009. Impossible.

Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn, the group leading the fight against Bruce Ratner's controversial Atlantic Yards megaproject, has some news for investors and analysts.

It's official, Forest City is delusional and doesn't mind deluding its investors and analysts. From Forest City Enterprises second quarter results:

...Forest City ended the second quarter with seven projects under construction with a total cost of $2.1 billion at the Company's pro-rata share ($2.5 billion at full consolidation). With the exception of the Barclays Arena at Atlantic Yards in Brooklyn, and the fee-development construction of a new City Hall project in Las Vegas, the Company does not anticipate commencing construction on any additional projects in 2009.

It is impossible for arena construction to start in 2009.

FCE investors and anaylsts can take that as a tip.
