How Dense Would Atlantic Yards Be? Very Dense. (link)
At a proposed 9,000 units and 19,000-plus residents over 22 acres, would the project have any peers? Advocate last month: "It does not feel like community. It feels like towers."
This watchdog blog, by journalist Norman Oder, covers the project to build the Barclays Center arena and 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 Shanghai-based Greenland USA took a majority share. Forest City left in 2018. Eight towers and the arena have been built. After a stall, Cirrus and LCOR in 2025 took over as master developers. A plan to complete the project is pending.
