No Land Grab, the essential Internet portal to all Atlantic Yards information, articles, and press has an assortment of responses to Sunday’s New York Times piece. Thanks to Amy over there for putting it all together. Here’s a preview:
Over at Atlantic Yards, Norman Oder asks: "What’s the bottom line regarding Atlantic Yards, based on today’s New York Times article? The issue, to David A. Smith,
an affordable housing analyst in Boston who’s previously reviewed
Atlantic Yards documents (but not the new ones), is the future balance
between developer profit and affordable housing, and who gets to decide." Read more at AYR.
Over at Develop Don’t Destroy there this: "There are some errors and oddities in the article that strain
credulity. One error is that the huge Frank Gehry ego-trip, aka "Miss
Brooklyn," will open in 2009. That is pure fantasy, considering the
developer is terribly behind schedule due to lawsuits." Read more at Develop Don’t Destroy.
Thank you so much, Steve. I so appreciate corrections of this kind. I’ve put the change into the post. Amy,sorry for forgetting that it’s you on the weekends.
Louise
I’d like to suggest a small change to this entry. Thanks over at No Land Grab should go to Amy in this case. She is the one who takes responsibility for the care and feeding of No Land Grab on the weekends.
Thanks Amy!
