I read this at New York 1 but for the real story go to Atlantic Yards Report.

A federal judge on Friday recommended tossing out a lawsuit meant to block developer Forest City Ratner’s Atlantic Yards project.

The suit, which was filed last year, claims that taking property away under eminent domain is unconstitutional.   

U.S. Magistrate Robert Levy says the federal court should stay out of the case because it is a local matter.

A U.S. district judge has the final say on whether the suit will be thrown out.
