The Atlantic Yards project was hit with yet another lawsuit last Monday. The suit was brought on by Develop Don’t Destroy Brooklyn (DDDB), a local grassroots organization, along with 20 other community groups.
The suit alleges that that Empire State Development Corp (ESDC) illegally pushed the project forward so tax exempt arena bonds could be used by the end of the year deadline.
While many state that the eminent domain lawsuit is the only one that could prevent this project from moving forward, DDDB claims this suit could terminate the project permanently.
