I guess that was always sort of true.
It's just that places like (what is now called Soho and Tribeca) WERE off the radar years ago. The only people that lived in lofts were artists and musicians. Not lawyers and Investment bankers with families.

When I first moved to New York I lived in a loft in Tribeca. On the other side of the wall from where I slept was a notorious Black Gay after hours club called "Buttermilk Bottom's" (BTW hands down best name for a night club EVER!) There was Disco music thumping all night long and into the next day.
Between that and hideous Twyla Tharp rehearsing her dancers above me there was constant noise.
However the idea of complaining about it would have been useless. Who would you call? The cops? Hardly. It was just all part of the bohemian experience I guess. I loved it.
