On Flatbush, a $3 Billion Pipeline of Projects
There is more than $3.1 billion of construction projects in the pipeline for the one mile stretch of Flatbush Avenue between the Manhattan Bridge and the Williamsburgh Bank building, calculates The New York Post this morning.

There is more than $3.1 billion of construction projects in the pipeline for the one mile stretch of Flatbush Avenue between the Manhattan Bridge and the Williamsburgh Bank building, calculates The New York Post this morning. Here’s how it breaks down: 
In addition, there’s another $1 billion in projects off the northern end of Flatbush and, of course, a $4 billion project some of you may have heard of called Atlantic Yards. “Flatbush Avenue is the borough’s quintessential boulevard and the gateway into Brooklyn,” said Joseph Chan, president of the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership. “It is to Brooklyn what Broadway is to Manhattan, and it is poised for some dramatic change.”

Hear hear. 🙂
Which line did you get? My husband and I bought on the 9-17 D line.
“thank God I’ve moved to Bed Stuy”…lol
i wonder if people were having these conversartions during the early 1900s almost 30 years into the brownstone boom?
Where does the Atlantic Yards project stand these days, I’ve lost track. I haven’t seen a “done deal” posting in quite a while. Is that because the deal is actually done, and they don’t need to push their agenda? Or is there still a tug of war between Ratner and those who don’t want to see his project come to life? I’ve already moved away from that area and into Bed-Stuy (thank God!) so I don’t care one way or the other, just asking.
Hooray for impending downward price spirals!
Well we certainly need the housing. I’m all for it.
This is going to look like midtown and the village had a baby
Brooklyn will never be the same. It just can’t.
I guess people can’t keep calling the Atlantic Yards complex “out of context” anymore.
