The Atlantic Yards Land Use Improvement and Civic Project is one of the most important public/private development initiatives underway in New York City today as well as one of the largest job-creating projects in Brooklyn’s history. This once-in-a-generation project spans 7 blocks, 22 acres and 7.8 million square feet of residential, retail, restaurant and public space. Master planned by Frank Gehry, Atlantic Yards is already serving as a social, cultural and commercial focal point in New York City.
