Atlantic Yards would:

Contain the same amount of development as 23 Williamsburgh Savings Banks

Generate over 20,000 new vehicle trips every day with no plan to avoid gridlock

Contain affordable housing that won't be affordable to average Brooklynites

Potentially be built without significant input from New Yorkers

Omar, that is a concern. Look at the area around Madison Square Garden. It has no dedicated parking area, but it has spurred a big secondary parking industry along and west of Manhattan's 8th Avenue. That's why the Brooklyn Speaks transportation agenda (http://brooklynspeaks.net/noplantoavoidgridlock) calls for prevention of this kind of development with zoning changes.
