Sunday @ Atlantic Yards / Barclays Center
A Daily Photo

The Nets’ arena is growing by the day, and what’s most striking is that the sides of the building are going to be up against the roadway. It’s a narrow fit. The nearby intersections are hellish, but now traffic cops are frequently posted at the three main lights, so that helps.
[Emphasis, ours.]
NoLandGrab: Critics have been wondering what the proximity of the arena, especially to Atlantic Avenue, where it appears to be about 10 feet from the roadbed, means for security. Newark police close a street before, during and after games at the Prudential Center that is 25 feet from the arena.
