The natives who were there before the changes happened never complained. The newcomers that needed their beauty sleep for an early start at Condé Nast did all of the complaining. 2 sides to every coin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-18295135164109315242008-10-18T18:38:00.000-04:002008-10-18T18:38:00.000-04:00Sb-- the people did not move "in heavily popu...Sb-- the people did not move "in heavily populated areas filled with bars & restaurants".<BR/><BR/>the bars and restaurants moved into those neighborhodd, which are/were mostly a residential area, much like what Delicatessen did to Spring St. and tese trendy bara/lounges in EV and LES.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-42181613547748837302008-10-18T05:28:00.000-04:002008-10-18T05:28:00.000-04:00i've never understood why people live in heavi...i've never understood why people live in heavily populated areas filled with bars & restaurants. moving to a quiet area seems like normal progression for these types. i worked in a bar where the new neighbors came out to complain that their baby couldn't sleep at night. now call me insane, but why on earth would you move above a bar when you're about to give birth? not even worth discussing, because it's just that obvious.<BR/><BR/>i do remember when Avenue A. started to become a hot spot & people were tossing popcorn kernels & wet napkins out their windows. I also remember when the Cloister Cafe on 9th was a great inexpensive restaurant & they had an upstairs neighbor who would toss buckets of water on the patrons dining in the garden. i knew the spot she tossed onto, so i declined sitting there once, but it amazed me that they still sat people there. they should have killed her & not the great meals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
