TransitGuy Posted March 26, 2008 Share #1 Posted March 26, 2008 Hello everyone, I am just curious do support or hate the Atlantic yards plan which involves the relocation of the New Jersey Nets to Brooklyn? Here are some links in case you don't know the plan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Yards http://www.barclayscenter.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo M 201 Posted March 26, 2008 Share #2 Posted March 26, 2008 Nah, I don't support it because its taking my basketball team away from me. Even though getting to Brooklyn is more convenient to watch a basketball game, I'm a Joisey boy so I'm gonna want my basketball team here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted March 26, 2008 Share #3 Posted March 26, 2008 I vote no because the arena its just going to raise rents and and move a lot of people away form brooklyn. I think that they should just build the arena in floyd bennit fleld since its just a big open space with no nimbys and its right next to the belt parkway. And the B41 B46 B47 B9 B2 could be extended to floyd bennit fleld and plus the Q35 already goes there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East New York Posted March 28, 2008 Share #5 Posted March 28, 2008 I don't think I really like the idea either. I like my Brooklyn just the way it is! But building it at FB Field could be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebbieprops Posted March 30, 2008 Share #6 Posted March 30, 2008 Yes. I'm glad to have another team in New York. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TransitGuy Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share #7 Posted April 3, 2008 Well I may catch heat for this but I said yes. I support any attempts to get a sports team in NYC. I think it would be great for the area and I hope it goes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
