ATLANTIC YARDS—Not satisfied by our iPhonetactular liveblog of the Barclays Center groundbreaking today? The city has distributed this up-close photo of Bruce, Mike, Dave, Marty, Jigga and the gang putting shovel to dirt. Gotta love how Jay-Z even does that cool hat tilt thing with his hardhat. Hov!

UPPER WEST SIDE—Yesterday we pointed out a glorious Architectural Digest slideshow of a 46th floor Upper West Side apartment, and we figured someone would ID the mystery building while yelling at us for our ignorance. A tipster writes: “Hopefully you don’t mind if I don’t yell, but it’s almost assuredly from The Park Millennium aka 111 w67th St nee 1992 Broadway. There aren’t many other buildings that tall in the area with that set of views, and the window spandrels match perfectly. They must have a unit that’s the whole south side of the building, since you can see the Trump Riverside stuff from the bedroom and the smoke stacks at Ravenswood out the other side (and then there’s the view of TWC to the south). I was going to mention the April AD too, since I bought a copy for the great 15CPW photos, but clearly someone yelled me to it.” [CurbedWire Inbox]

Yesterday it was accusations of fraudulent signature shenanigans, so what new craziness does One Madison Park have in store for us today? Buyer refunds! The Real Deal’s David Jones reports that State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo’s office has told One Mad Park’s developers to offer refunds to buyers who haven’t yet closed on their contracts. Half of the 69-unit building is in contract but only about a dozen sales have closed so far, so the developers could be on the hook for refunds for more than 40 percent of the apartments. Refund offers are legally required after what one attorney called “material” events like a foreclosure. On the bright side for the developers, maybe a few more of those in contract units will turn out to be freebies?

Brooklyn, and almost all of the State of New York, are always hotbeds of action. People from all walks of life flock to any of the five boroughs in order to get a taste of “real city life” and vie to get in on some of the most sought after careers out there. It isn’t just modeling, dancing and acting on Broadway that those moving to New York are looking for either – there is the bait of Wall Street, and just competitive, thriving business in general.

You may not think the state of the economy today would have as big an impact on a place like New York as it would in some areas that had already been suffering a bit before the big down turn came about, but it’s a sad fact that bankruptcy lawyers in Brooklyn are working overtime just like bankruptcy lawyers all over the rest of the country.

Brooklyn bankruptcy attorneys are having just as much trouble finding time to help all of their clients as lawyers in smaller markets, but the difficult thing that many bankruptcy attorneys from Brooklyn, New York have to face on a case by case basis is the magnitude of each individual case. Some lawyers in smaller markets may be dealing with dollar amounts that are in the single digits or thousands, whereas a Brooklyn bankruptcy attorney could be handling single cases that involve in excess of tens of millions of dollars. The sheer size of the dollar amounts that appears in each petition creates a lot of pressure for Brooklyn bankruptcy attorneys.

It’s not easy being a bankruptcy attorney anywhere, the things that you have to see and deal with on a daily basis can be very difficult to deal with, but when you are a bankruptcy lawyer dealing with potentially high profile clients whose cases have dollar amounts in the millions it can add an extra element of stress to an already very stressful job.
