Barclays quick to adopt large-beverage ban
Forest City Ratner CEO Bruce Ratner, at a City Hall press conference, announced yesterday afternoon that Barclays Center will immediately adopt the new regulations on the sale of sugary beverages adopted by the city’s Board of Health earlier in the day.
Barclays Center, home of the Brooklyn Nets, will be the first major venue in the city to voluntarily comply with the new regulations.
“As the newest sports and entertainment venue in Brooklyn, Barclays Center is thrilled to work with the mayor and the city to help achieve the mayor’s public health goals,” said Ratner.
