Living among the wealthy occurs in St Bart. I'm afraid not the East Village there is room for all here the wealthy as you say neither thrill me nor cause me to mindlessly hate them. I lack envy to other peoples life or life styles.

This hopefully will build a residency (any approved designs out there)in a town needing more living spaces. This complex will pay property taxes the church did not.
