Also, looking at school age student population in the presentation, it seemed that middle school general ed seat demands are declining and projected to continue to decline in D13. The DOE rep seemed to suggest that District 75 seat needs were increasing on the other hand, and the suggestion seemed to be that how to fill new seats would be a question answered closer to the opening of any new schools.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-31870402362501703412022-01-25T11:20:50.876-05:002022-01-25T11:20:50.876-05:00If you can people, try to move to New Jersey, ther...If you can people, try to move to New Jersey, there are a lot of safe real affordable housing there, just do your research, as for Atlantic yards apartments, by the time they complete these units, black and brown people will already be pushed out the surrounding areas, and this is what the developers and some democrats politicians want, don't be fooled, remember again this is needed at the atlantic yards apartments AMI, 20%,30%,40%,50,%60%70%AMI, this is extreme, very low, and low income,all low income earners need affordable, resourceful areas like the atlantic yards apartments, but instead as I seen, the only thing that changed this year, is adding on 2, for 2022, republican and dems politicians filling up there pockets, and purses, smhjayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00492406514279249521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-12840191959036001902022-01-01T20:24:44.647-05:002022-01-01T20:24:44.647-05:00Let me know if it's better nowLet me know if it's better nowNorman Oderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618087999719667586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-51022246974013241582022-01-01T20:10:23.743-05:002022-01-01T20:10:23.743-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Norman Oderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618087999719667586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-1288525630446172792022-01-01T15:20:35.064-05:002022-01-01T15:20:35.064-05:00great graphic, super informative. is there a highe...great graphic, super informative. is there a higher resolution version which could be shared? it's somewhat difficult to make out all of the text in a legible way.Russ Buckleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03860865063930079432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-8548725164640435242021-12-24T17:23:17.651-05:002021-12-24T17:23:17.651-05:00Empire State Development chose to named "Atla...Empire State Development chose to named "Atlantic Yards" to "Pacific Park." I'm constantly amazed that NYC Economic Development Corporation renamed "Willoughby Square Park" to "Abolitionist Place Park," and then made a big deal that they couldn't use the word park so they renamed it again, this time to "Abolitionist Place," which is doubly confusing because it's on Duffield Street which is co-named "Abolitionist Place."<br /><br />Clearly, words no longer have meaning.raulistichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17683032122056788279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-74736838393494466322021-11-15T12:02:05.446-05:002021-11-15T12:02:05.446-05:00What a dam shame, making these units for the highe...What a dam shame, making these units for the higher incomes, well I guess that's the end of low income units being built there at Pacific park, in general, what a dam shame and shame on Democrats and Republicans to allow this to happen, in these resources neighborhoods, thanks Mr norman for the info, next stop for me probably be NJ, iam outjayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00492406514279249521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-7587193280343953082021-11-09T18:17:36.391-05:002021-11-09T18:17:36.391-05:00what a dam shame, still no mention of so call affo...what a dam shame, still no mention of so call affordable housing in the plank road, maybe there waiting for eric adams the new mayor for next year, to whisper something in his ears, no affordable housing for seniors, no or very low amount of affordable units at these towers for all low incomes, welcome to nyc, the most unaffordable place to live, if your a lowincomer smheyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05093763824556912073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20743459.post-47130066524081142532021-11-08T11:33:20.636-05:002021-11-08T11:33:20.636-05:00I definitely have been watching a d waiting for th...I definitely have been watching a d waiting for these (affordable units) for low incomes to pop up in these almost finish 2 towers, the plank road and I think another tower, I guess just waiting and watching, my gray hair grows faster than these delay low income units, senior affordable housing units, any one?

If you look, you'll notice that they only add about 10 floors of height to the crane per crane jump - my guess is that it is to maintain stability as the crane also gets anchored to the building under construction. Now that they are on the repetitive, relatively small floor plates of the tower portions, they are moving quite quickly.
