    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>While protestors and construction workers staged counter rallies at the site of his planned Atlantic Yards, Bruce Ratner penned a guest column in the Daily News. He promised a 10-year build-out for the project, starting with the Nets’ arena. “We anticipate finishing all of Atlantic Yards by 2018,” he wrote. Ratner blamed critics and the economy for the project’s slow-down, and doesn’t even mention Newark. And in a Record poll, Jerseyans want the IZOD Center shut down soon.</div>

    2018??? What happened to 2010? This is bs I give up on Brooklyn we should just move to Newark or something..

    The year 2018 is the prediction for the entire project, with all the apartment and office buildings, etc.

    The Barclays Center itself was/is projected to be finished around 2010.

    Relax.

    The groundbreaking needs to happen by the fall for 2010 to be a possibility. The Prudential, new yankee stadium, and Citi field would all have taken 2 years to finish. Any other delays and the date will be pushed back to 2011 or later.
