Yes, I mean to tell you exactly that. Atlantic Yards wasn't downscaled.

And no, saying that the height of a few buildings were cut obviously isn't the same thing. Height is a totally different consideration than scale.

I think two or three buildings were slightly cut in height, but the buildable area was distributed to the planned commercial tower across Flatbush, and to one or two of the apartment buildings. There was no significant change in buildable space, or in overall scale.
