Reply to "Farewell Charming Old New York: Part 2"

It's so sad to see NYC change like this. I have been away from NYC for awhile now. I moved just after NYU built those dorms on third ave and 11 st, where the parking lot was. I remember the Palladium, Variety and Luchow's. Luchow's became a club, I think it was called the Union Club, then it had a go as a new wave club, like the Cat club, but failed, no one went there.
I have lived in NYC most of my life, I arrived there at 2 years of age. I grew up in the Bronx, so as kids we would always go to Times Square to hang out. This is what I miss most of NYC, the sleeze factor, it seems like NYC has been cleaned up a bit.
Baltimore, where I now live, still has some sleeze left in it.
