Ward Bakery is Almost Toast

Ward Bakery is almost toast. Photographer Tracy Collins got some shots of demolition equipment moving in on the buildings, which many had sought to save. Atlantic Yards plans show the site will probably be used as a parking lot for nearly a decade before anything is built there. Mr. Collins has a huge set of Ward Bakery photos here.

The video below, meanwhile, was featured in a post yesterday on Gothamist, which probably means that most of you saw it already. It comes from Daniel Goldstein of Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn and shows work on Flatbush Avenue going on at 4:14 in the morning.
