This watchdog blog offers analysis, commentary, and reportage about Forest City Ratner’s planned $4 billion Atlantic Yards project, the largest ever in Brooklyn, to build a basketball arena plus 16 high-rise buildings. It is written without compensation by Norman Oder, who is employed as a professional journalist in his “day job” and sometimes revises his blog reportage for publication in the weekly Brooklyn Downtown Star newspaper.
