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.
No, there was no meeting yesterday of the Atlantic Yards Community Development Corporation (my preview) and thus no opportunity to potentially learn more about the project's future.
It will be rescheduled, presumably soon, because the Directors are expected, at least, to approve the body's annual budget.
In the meantime, the AY CDC posted one public comment, which consisted of Prospect Heights resident Robert Puca distilling several of the pre-meeting questions I'd posed.
