Anti-Ratner Group Hauls Out The Lit Guns

Non-profit Develop Don’t Destroy Brooklyn is a single issue organization. Hell, they proudly refer to themselves as “a coalition of 21 community organizations… formally aligned in oposition to the Ratner plan” — as in the Ratner plan to build Atlantic Yards on the Park Slope/Fort Greene/Prospect Heights border. That’s why we were pretty surprised to see WWD refer to DDDB as an organization “which fights for the preservation of Brooklyn neighborhoods” in a piece on a new benefit book for the organization.
