Bad Day for Brooklyn: Atlantic Yards Groundbreaking
Only The Blog Knows Brooklyn
I hear the sound of a helicopter circling outside, due north of my dining room. I am guessing it’s a news copter covering the groundbreaking ceremony over at the Atlantic Yards not all that far from my Third Street apartment.
Yup, today’s the day. After years, yes years, of protest, lawsuits and outrage, today is the official groundbreaking ceremony for Forest City Ratner’s Nets arena at the Atlantic Yards.
WoeLandGrab: Might have been a news copter, or it might have been the police chopper keeping watch in case protestors stormed the "Green Zone" in search of lobster sliders and champagne.
