PROSPECT HEIGHTS - erased

Carlton Avenue near Dean Street
Prospect Heights
Brooklyn, New York

There used to be a mural on this wall by the Prospect Heights Action Coalition (PHAC) critical of Atlantic Yards . It was painted over sometime this fall by someone other than the PHAC, without their permission.

Anyone know who did it?

This entire block (bounded by Dean Street, Carlton Avenue, Pacific Street and Vanderbilt Avenue) would be completely demolished and replaced by a "temporary" surface parking lot to support the Barclays Center basketball arena. At some time in the future (possibly decades), this block would be the site of several Atlantic Yards skyscrapers.

NoLandGrab: ID'ing the perps shouldn't be difficult, what with all the spy cameras Bruce Ratner has deployed in the neighborhood.
