    Amazing how much more warm and humane the older buildings are, and how much more brutal and forbidding the new "luxury" architecture is.

      I completely agree. I don't understand how architects and whoever approves their projects can be so out of touch with reality. I hope someone will stop this crap before they turn this neighborhood into a deserted financial district.
