Artist Statement

This is a photograph of 812 Pacific Street in Prospect Heights, a building threatened with demolition to make way for the proposed "Atlantic Yards" development. Since 2004, as a new resident of the neighborhood, I have been documenting the changing "face" in and around the proposed project footprint as part of my project, "Atlantic Yards: [De]Construction of The Neighborhood." This is a digital photograph.

Wonderful composition, beautiful capture !!

my hood. love the composition.

The clotheslines give it a "sense of 'hood."

The everyday theater is surprising. Even when the Atlantic Yards move in, this energy will be here, even if forced to resettle, in Brooklyn.

I like the composition and the color balance in this photograph, combined with the juxtaposition of "HOOD" and Home.

great composition, color and tone have been worked on but it says hat it says

?

Great photo, Tracy. — Posted by NK
