So you're trying to sleep on Pacific Street opposite the Vanderbilt Yard, between Sixth and Carlton Avenues. You've got the windows closed because work on the railyard generates dust. The noise wakes you up, at 2 am. You open the window to get a better view of the work and shoot this videotape:
This watchdog blog, by journalist Norman Oder, concerns the $6B project to build the Barclays Center arena & 15-16 towers at a crucial site in Brooklyn. Dubbed Atlantic Yards by developer Forest City Ratner in 2003, it was rebranded Pacific Park Brooklyn in 2014 after the Chinese government-owned Greenland USA bought a 70% stake going forward. In 2018, once the arena & four towers were built, Greenland bought out most of Forest City's stake, then sold three leases to other companies.
