Today's Daily News editorial, which I dissected here, was accompanied by a photo of two thirds of the railyard--in other words, perhaps a quarter of the overall Atlantic Yards site.
The other part of the arena--not stadium, as Borough President Marty Markowitz would remind people, is being built on pieces of residential/commercial Pacific and Dean Streets.
In other words, the photo is as dishonest as the editorial.

This photo looks like it was taken from a Ratner-controlled building in the AY footprint. The photographer was given access by the developer, and so it's not a stretch to suggest that the developer had some editorial suggestions in what to photograph and how.
ReplyDeleteMaybe. Though it could also have been taken from Newswalk.
ReplyDeleteA good number of arena site photos, however, have been taken from the Ratner-controlled Atlantic Center mall.
