Jim Stuckey Should Explain His Atlantic Yards "Game Changer" Tweet

Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn

Former Forest City Ratner Senior VP and Atlantic Yards head honcho until he was mysteriously and unceremoniously let go by the developer and now is a Divisional Dean at NYU's Schack Institute of Real Estate and a prolific Tweeter recently tweeted:

Went to see Atlantic Yards last week. Incredible progress. A real positive game changer for NYC.

Really Jim? Can he explain how his former boss's construction of a money losing arena and vast parking lots, attained by eminent domain abuse, massive public subsidies and the subversion of the normal planning and political process is a "game changer"? Or perhaps he meant a losing game changer.
