News New Atlantic Yards Project Approved, For Now
Posted by Benjamin Sutton on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 4:46 PM
Today the Empire State Development Corporation, the lead agency for Forest City Ratner’s Atlantic Yards development proposal, gave its rubberstamp re-approval to the Modified General Project Plan. The Brooklyn community’s comments to the ESDC were not given adequate response. Today’s actions will likely lead to new litigation against the ESDC and the Atlantic Yards plan because the agency is required by law to undertake a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS), but did not.
Be strong, DDD, and good luck.
