From the latest Construction Alert: second shift for steel not expected, crane planned for Flatbush Avenue, pile driving at Carlton Avenue Bridge
Atlantic Yards Report
According to the latest two-week Atlantic Yards Construction Alert (below), dated October 24 and distributed October 25 by Empire State Development (after preparation by developer Forest City Ratner), there are a few notable changes:
- a second shift from the steel erector is not expected in this and next week
- installation of the arena facade will require a crane to occupy part of northbound Flatbush Avenue
- there will be additional pile driving (and, presumably, noise to neighbors) at the Carlton Avenue Bridge.
NoLandGrab: Funny, we thought the Carlton Avenue bridge was supposed to be completely rebuilt and operational at the beginning of 2010.
