Walk Don't Destroy 4:
A Candlelight Walk to Shine Light on the Abuses of the Atlantic Yards Project and
Raise Funds for the Legal Fight Against the Stalled Project


For this year's Walkathon, which is wholly dependent upon your active participation and sponsor solicitation, we are doing something new. The walk will take place in the twilight hours and the walkers will carry candles to shine a light on the numerous abuses of Ratner's Atlantic Yards plan.

The walk will commence in front of Bob Law's Seafood Cafe (637 Vanderbilt -- btwn St. Marks and Prospect Place) and conclude with an after party including free food and live music (to be announced) at the Brooklyn Lyceum (227 4th Avenue at President Street).

On Saturday October 18th
Sign-in for walkers will start at 5:15pm in front of Bob Law's Seafood Cafe, and the walk will take place from 6:15 - 7:30pm.


You can REGISTER NOW and start inviting your family, friends and neighbors to sponsor you by CLICKING HERE. You can also start forming walking teams, and compete against other teams to see who can raise the most funds for the the legal fight against Atlantic Yards.

Your support and participation are more important than ever as we approach the completion of the fifth year in the fight against Atlantic Yards and for responsible, democratic development.
