Show Notes
New York States economic development agency is considering a $350 million request to build a platform over train tracks at Brooklyns Atlantic Yards site, a long-delayed project with a history of broken promises and missed deadlines. The plan includes a park and new apartment buildings, with developers seeking public funding due to high costs. Local leaders and community advocates express mixed feelings, questioning the return on investment and demanding stronger commitments for low-income housing. Similar deck projects across the city also seek public aid, highlighting a shift towards taxpayer support for major housing pushes.
