Atlantic Yards, Part II


We're back in Brooklyn this week with our investigation into Atlantic Yards, the largest development project in Brooklyn's history where the new Nets basketball stadium is currently being built. Billy Eugene Jones plays a homeowner who lived in the footprint, talking about the process of negotiating with Forest City Ratner, the developer. Marsha Stephanie Blake plays City Council Member Letitia James and Atlantic Yards opponent. Sam Breslin Wright plays Brooklyn Borough President, Marty Markowitz, and Billy Eugene Jones returns to sing "The Circle Song" by Michael Friedman.
