As photos of liquor bottles and other trash show, maybe the Barclays Center operating company doesn't clean the arena plaza "through post-event," as claimed.

Arena plaza, 7:15 am, April 12

Last November, at the most recent of the formerly bi-monthly Atlantic Yards Quality of Life meetings, I reported on a presentation by Marissa Shorenstein, Chief External Affairs Officer for BSE Global, which owns the Brooklyn Nets, New York Liberty, and Barclays Center operating company.

Shorenstein said that the plaza, which she also called the Urban Experience (a formal name, from state documents, not typically used by arena reps), was cleaned daily, with staff cleaning the plaza from 6 am "through post-event."

That may have been a response to a video I posted of a post-concert mess on what the arena company typically calls Ticketmaster Plaza, with the implication that, if the videographer had only stuck around, it all would've been cleaned.

Well, maybe they're not that consistent.

As shown in the photos here, sent to me by a neighbor, there were several mini liquor bottles, and other trash, on the plaza at 7:15 am yesterday, the morning after the first of a two-day Reggae Fest.

That includes pathways, presumably, for people to walk to and from the subway entrance.

As shown in the larger photo below, an orange jacketed worker does seem to be tackling the mess and, presumably, it was cleaned up. It just didn't happen "post-event."
