Notice: Pacific Street between Sixth and Carlton avenues closed Friday through Sunday for construction

Ok, maybe the third time's a charm. A Community Notice from Pacific Park Brooklyn indicated that on 9/23/16 contractors would be delivering and installing new DC substation modular building and transformers for the new Long Island Rail Road yard, requiring the closure of Pacific Street between Sixth and Carlton avenues. The most recent Construction Update indicated that the work would start last Friday, 10/14/16.

Today comes an Updated Community Notice regarding "Long Island Rail Road Substation & Transformer Delivery & Installation Friday, October 21 through Sunday, October 23." There's no indication that the previous work was done, and the attached graphic is the same, so I'm assuming that the previous work was postponed. But they should've been more clear.

The notice:
As part of Pacific Park Brooklyn construction, beginning Friday, October 21st through Sunday, October 23rd contractors will be delivering and installing new DC substation modular building and transformers for the new Long Island Rail Road yard.
Delivery of the units will occur during the early morning hours of Friday, October 21st and they will be stored on Pacific Street between Vanderbilt and Carlton Avenue.
Pacific Street will be closed to vehicular traffic on both Saturday, October 22nd and Sunday, October 23rd between the hours of 7:00AM to 7:00PM.

A crane will positioned at Pacific Street at 6th Avenue and vehicular access in and out of the parking garages along Pacific Street will be maintained via Carlton Avenue.
