Despite the best efforts of the people in this neighborhood (especially the ones whose light and air will disappear behind it) developers are hard at work putting up a 17-story luxury apartment building here where the West Village meets Soho. |

When it's completed, two-thirds of my friend's view across the Soho rooftops will be obliterated. There ought to be a law. (And there probably is. And it's probably being ignored.)

Shame!
ReplyDeleteThat is too sad! Too bad the big guys win all the time.
ReplyDeleteThey say progress but not so much.
ReplyDeleteMoney talks....and does not listen. Too bad.
ReplyDeleteI agree..money talks...and corruption that often goes with it. I can relate to this ..on two counts. My neighbours want to do the same to me... a corporation wants to do the same to our community. The corporation is losing so far...my neighbours...not sure....
ReplyDeleteps. thanks for sharing on Mandarin Orange Monday:))
ReplyDeleteProgress sometimes seems like regress- we had a new niehgbor buy some land with beuatiful oaks, then cut them down to make pasture....
