New York Magazine on the “Atlantic Yards” Project
For a few years now, the city's media elite has studiously avoided serious, honest coverage of Forest City Ratner's Atlantic Yards project. That is why it is so refreshing to see that this week's New York magazine is running the single best story on the mega-development project that I have yet seen in any mainstream press. It's by political reporter Chris Smith and it is a must-read.
