Watch That First Step

It looks as though those quaint, original house/shops in the background, that gave Yorkville its charm, could easily tumble into the gaping hole of what is fast becoming the New Yorkville.

This hole is the start of a huge, huge project, spanning an entire block. And there are more and more of these massive buildings towering over fewer and fewer funky shops.

And when the people move into all these high rise condos and ask, "Where are all the charming Yorkville shops and restaurants?" we'll be able to say, "You're standing on them".

I'm beginning to think that you attract these things - big ol' construction holes - hmmm... wonder what Freud would say? You're not moving to Jersey anytime soon, are ya??? Of course, we have our own problems... :-)
