From The Real Deal today:

Out of a total of 4,580 condos projected to hit the Manhattan market by 2016, nearly 30 percent will be located below 14th Street, according to a new report from the Marketing Directors.

In 2016, the Marketing Directors projected 17 new condo buildings Downtown with a total of 823 units. In a twist, the location of the buildings will shift to the Lower East Side and East Village from Tribeca and the Financial District.

Speechless...almost. As if the rapid overcrowding here in the EV LESis not already bad enough, our sleazy gov't officials are giving away more of our tax money to every megarich developer who wants to cram in even more people as if the idiot crowds of tourists and NYU students haven't already ruined the neighborhood. What is enough for you, you greedy fucks.

Thank you , Mayor Bloomberg. And if fellow middle class residents, multi generational families of this city would like a view of our cities future read Arch digest article on "hyper- gentrification". And, I am moving to your hometown to displace your grandmother .
You can not now nor ever eat money.

And of course we'll need lots of new bars, chain stores, and banks to make these newbies feel comfortable, like they're back at home in the Midwest. Can't wait. Thanks. Rudy, Mike, and Bill, for working to irrevocably destroy what used to be the greatest city I knew.

Uptown idiots are tired of sitting in their ubers for 45 minutes heading downtown on friday and saturday nights from 10pm - 1am. They need to be closer to brunch and da club. Unortunately, your run of the mill wasp cant even afford these $3m+ 2 bedrooms in prime location. Dont fear neighbors, New York is only dead on the weekends, we still have the week.

Rudy, Mike and Bill were elected into office and not become mayor by way of a military junta. It's always the citizens which DO NOT VOTE that bitch the loudest.

One neighborhood, under developed, now with luxury housing and roof decks for all.

And how many of these will be getting tax breaks and not have to pay property taxes - city is losing 1 billion a year due to this give away to the millionaires - the market does not need any tax subsidies.

@Anon. 9:09, I have voted in every election since the 1976 Carter-Ford presidential showdown, but I did not cast a single vote for Ghouliani, Bloomterd or Bloomblasio. So just shut up.

Let's not lump DiBlasio in with the other two cretins just yet. He has yet to sink to such depths. Remember, he did succeed in keeping the rent-stabilization rent increase to only 1 percent this year. And he stood up to that moron Lynch and the PBA until some backroom deal led all concerned to pretend like that little episode never happened. And I believe he has done other good things behind the scenes that aren't much talked about. As the right-wingers seem determined to destroy him, this makes me think they also fear him just a little. They obviously don't want him to get more powerful.

Giuliani and Bloomberg were straight-up corrupt criminals, wannabe Roman emperors, and you can slag off on them all day. I won't complain, promise...

to @9:09, I also complain loudly and vote regularly so your theory would seem to have some holes.
