TOMPKINS SQUARE PARK IS SAFE; we do not need a tower. INVADING OUR PRIVACY does not equal "cleaning up the park." This is an obvious attempt at "cleansing" the park of unsightly people to make the rich more "comfortable" about paying market rate. I say, pay your millions for your crap glass condos: After a while, between the rising tides brought on by climate change, our growing police state problems, and the fact that NYC has become a giant antiseptic mall, the PRICES WILL FALL BECAUSE THE LOCAL COLOR THAT EVERYONE MOVED HERE FOR (and apparently take selfies of) will be LONG GONE. There will be no cute unusual shops, no old-fashioned diners, no indie book or music shops, just chain stores, chain banks, and a bunch of people looking into their screens and not caring about each other. ALSO: JUDGING FROM ALL THE TIT SHOTS ON YOUR BLOG, YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO EXPLOITS WOMEN, but that's okay I guess, since you're not an expert at it, just an amateur. What was it that upset you about my comment? I guess you're just saddened by the decrease in PDA from the Standard and wish there was something like that in Tompkins. I bet you'd like a spot in that tower for a while, probably with a ZOOM LENS!<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-74904893206537614122015-07-23T09:36:52.855-04:002015-07-23T09:36:52.855-04:00Easy there, Fashion by Meh.
