Forest City Ratner

I have a case of anticipatory road rage from being stuck in stadium traffic. To solve the anticipated parking crunch, the Barclays Center should make it harder to park, to scare drivers away from the arena. Here are 7 ideas:

After years of controversy, Barclays Center at Atlantic Yards--future home of the Brooklyn Nets--is "much more than halfway complete" according to Bob...

Kudos to Catsimatidis and Red Apple Group for their development the old-fashioned way, with their own cash and vision, and congratulations to the city government for making this all work.

Brooklyn's not close to "1000 percent behind Atlantic Yards." Did Markowitz really think no one would notice such a claim?

A couple of astonishing things happened last week in coverage of the EB-5 immigration visa program -- green cards for investments -- the dubious use of which I've investigated for months regarding Atlantic Yards.

Longstanding opponents Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn and Brooklyn Speaks got a favorable response last month and will have a hearing tomorrow, Dec. 2...

The next astounding step for Brooklyn developer Forest City Ratner involves raising a $249 million interest-free loan from 498 Chinese millionaires seeking green cards.

The latest blow to Atlantic Yards is renewed legal challenges over a plan for an "interim" parking lot for 1,100 cars that would be in place for up to 25 years.

A ruling in the last Atlantic Yards lawsuit laid bare just how the state cut corners to favor developer Forest City Ratner, allowing a 25-year buildout while insisting the project could get done in just ten years.

If a seven-city promotional tour in China is successful, here's what may happen: 498 millionaires will park $500,000 for five years in an investment fund organized for the developer of Atlantic Yards.

NEW YORK — The last holdout in a long-running land dispute with the developer of an NBA arena agreed Wednesday to sell his home on the site for ...

The most peculiar groundbreaking ceremony took place on March 11 at the edge of Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.

In theory, it should be everything that a progressive urban policy analyst like me would want from a new development. But, somehow, Atlantic Yards developer Forest City Ratner got it all wrong.

NEW YORK — Officials broke ground Thursday on a much-delayed 22-acre development project that will bring the NBA's New Jersey Nets to Brooklyn. ...

They may have scheduled a ground-breaking ceremony, but I just don't think the fat lady has sung yet, as far as the Atlantic Yards boondoggle/landgrab goes.

This whole Atlantic Yards boondoggle thing is still getting more amazing.

Despite being delayed years beyond its original schedule, FC Ratner persists in pursuing its increasingly expensive dream of taking 22 acres of real estate in Brooklyn with eminent domain.

The last remaining legal hurdle Atlantic Yards faces is a Court of Appeals hearing later this month on the project's proposed use of eminent domain. I...

As Forest City Enterprises markets bonds for Atlantic Yards in Brooklyn -- which includes the most expensive basketball arena in the country -- I'm struck by how tenuous the whole thing is.
