I live on 29th and 10th in an old tenement, and am watching in amazement as the huge high-rises obliterate the neighborhood but are filling up almost instantly with the kind of people who would only shop at CVS, Whole Foods and Duane Reade, and eat at upscale 'artisan' restaurants w/ 'crafted' offerings.

Several years ago before all the construction began it was pretty bleak. No grocery store, one deli. One restaurant to eat at. Empty sidewalks. Sorry to say that it was inevitable that the city was gonna push through here. It is mostly undeveloped. I lived on Hudson 15 years ago and we lost our delis and laundry matts and local hang outs and restaurants. That's not happening in the far west 30's because those things just don't exist. There is no neighborhood here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-73138446126566580392015-02-10T11:07:56.815-05:002015-02-10T11:07:56.815-05:00Can it get any more depressing?

For example, in a relatively short amount of time, long-time middle-class and politically “liberal” areas such as the Upper West Side are definitely less so, with the rapid influx of the very affluent, who have more of a conservative and libertarian framework.<br /><br />And regarding Hudson Yards development…one more aspect that is not discussed in the media and that the Bloomberg Administration ignored: the massive amount of traffic, from delivery trucks to taxis to people, that will result and which will also impact the Lincoln Tunnel. It will be standstill traffic around the Lincoln Tunnel 24/7. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
