Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, New York

The southbound lane of 5th Avenue between Atlantic Avenue and Pacific Street has been closed for infrastructure work for Atlantic Yards.

Buildings on the right (624 Pacific Street, 636 Pacific Street, 648 Pacific Street and 24 6th Avenue) would be demolished. The MTA Vanderbilt rail yard is to the left. This would be the site of the Barclays Center Arena, so this block of Pacific Street and a block of 5th Avenue would be demapped.
