Flashback to December 2010: "Most Anti-Climactic Groundbreaking Award: Atlantic Yards"

I missed this one, from Design Observer 12/24/10, Lunch With The Critics: Year-End Awards:
Why should other critics have all the fun? Mark Lamster and Alexandra Lange hash out their bests and worsts of the year over sandwiches in Boerum Hill.

...Most Anti-Climactic Groundbreaking Award: Atlantic Yards — oh wait — Barclays Center. When you’re more interested in the ownership than the team or the building, something is out of whack. [AL]
Lange had previously slammed New York Times architecture critic Nicolai Ouroussoff for, among other things, his coverage of Atlantic Yards.
