The stink of death is gone, but Von Furstenberg is still pumping perfume over the Meatpacking District. [Racked]
Yes, Cafe Figaro is now not only a Qdoba, but also a bank. [BB]
Celebs abandoning Manhattan? Not bad. [Gothamist]
And Manhattan's housing prices are falling. Not bad either. [NYT]

a.k.a. The Book of Lamentations:
a bitterly nostalgic look at a city in the process of going extinct
- Jeremiah Moss
- THE BOOK:
"We should all buy Jeremiah Moss’s book, Vanishing New York." --Sarah Jessica Parker
“Essential reading for fans of Jane Jacobs, Joseph Mitchell, Patti Smith, Luc Sante, and cheap pierogi.” --Vanity Fair
"a vigorous, righteously indignant book that would do Jane Jacobs proud." --Kirkus Reviews
THE BLOG:
"the go-to hub for those who lament New York's loss of character." --Crain's
"No one takes stock of New York's changes with the same mixture of snark, sorrow, poeticism, and lyric wit as Jeremiah Moss." --Village Voice, Best of NY
“Jeremiah Moss…is the defender of all the undistinguished hunks of masonry that lend the streets their rhythm.” --Justin Davidson, New York Magazine
"One of the most thorough and pugnacious chroniclers of New York’s blandification." --The Atlantic, Citylab
"Hyperbolic and combative, tireless and passionate." --Salon
Yeah, Gwyney-poo hates New Yorkers. The kind of "New Yorker" she hates came to this city because of her and other celebutards like her.
ReplyDeleteSo hey, thanks, Gwyney the Poo!
Also, I'm sure she's gonna LOVE Spain when half the country declares bankruptcy. What a dingleberry-infested asshole.
She was quoted as saying that she now lives in a country (Spain), that has buildings dating back to 1500 B.C. Uh Gwen, I think you might be confusing Madrid with Jerusalem.... If she wasn't so pretentious, and so deluded about her knowledge base, I'd feel sorry for her but I don't.
ReplyDeleteSaw today that the Qdoba on 6th Ave. b/w 8th and 9th was shuttered by the City Marshall. Dem's the breaks.
