During a photo op at Forest City Ratner’s Beekman Tower in Manhattan, Bruce Ratner mentioned that he expects to begin selling bonds, to fund the Barclays Center for the Nets basketball team, in two weeks. The Observer and Norman Oder at The Atlantic Yards Report point out that Ratner’s big eminent domain case in the Court of Appeals goes down on October 14. Since losing the case would mean an end to the Atlantic Yards project, Ratner sounds strangely confident of the outcome. Or at least acting that way.
