Project Atlantic Yards by Frank Gehry

Last Thursday, the project Atlantic Yards was introduced, transforming a 22-acre site of railway land in downtown Brooklyn (where 10 subway lines intersect). The entire project will consume 3.5 billion dollars and will construct 8.6 million square feet (800,000 m²). The author of all sixteen new buildings and the basketball arena is Frank Gehry, who, as always, has invented a new story justifying the same form. Developers believe that within three years, professional NBA league games will be played in the new arena. Info>
