New Gehry Atlantic Yards Design

Brace yourselves. The latest Frank Gehry designs for Atlantic Yards were revealed earlier. To the right is the latest vision for the megablock at Atlantic and Flatbush, already posted at Curbed and at Atlantic Yards Report--and within a matter of minutes, probably at interested sites and news organizations all over the country. AYR's Norman Oder also reported earlier that Forest City Ratner banned him from the press conference at which Mr. Gehry showed the new designs, apparently saying they would only allow reporters with "valid press credentials." Others had to apply to FCR for admission. One supposes that that is their right, but GL thinks it rather exudes a stench of insecurity, if not a desire to silence those who might question the project.
