The Spalding Building is prepared for its fate, as demolition work continues

Atlantic Yards Report

From Raul Rothblatt, aka Raulism on YouTube: Below is a walk along Pacific Street from Carlton to Sixth Avenues in Brooklyn, viewing both construction for Atlantic Yards and demolition of existing properties.

At the end, he gets to the renovated Spalding Building at the corner of Pacific Street and Sixth Avenue, sheathed in scaffolding, pictured at right and part of a set taken yesterday regarding Atlantic Yards work.

NoLandGrab: The conversion of a long-unused factory building into beautiful living units gives lie to claims that city and state subsidies were needed to jump start development and remove blight in the Atlantic Yards footprint.
