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

Very interesting article Stanley. Of course it's nothing new to anyone on the Motherboards but it's great that someone else is saying it too.

And yes, the famous 6th Avenue Flea Market is gone. It has moved to 39th and (I think) 11th Avenue. Hell's Kitchen. But don't despair, they are going to replace it with something we REALLY need... An ugly 30 story high rise with $4,000.00 a month studio apartments. They will be 300 square foot "luxury apartments" with 7 foot ceilings, cardboard walls and vinyl doors. I'm sure there will be a health club as well as a doorman.
And by the way, the famous "Flower District" on 28th Street and 6th Avenue (down the street) is moving as well. They can no longer afford the rents of the newly residential neighborhood.
