  1. "We'd lose money if we have to make it any shorter". You gotta love capitalism, they don't care who and what it effects. All moral gets thrown out the window, for that almighty dollar.

  2. Looks like developers are out to destroy gardens in NYC.
    No respect.Just greed.
    Next door to the building I live in, the ugliest building has been constructed.
    It's covering all our windows from getting any sunlight. I used to have light coming in tru SIX windows.. Now I only get light from TWO windows.
    I swear.. that building has been made out of cardboard like materials. No bricks and barely any cement. It's a fire hazard and not worth all the money NYC expects you to pay.
    We are moving out of NYC.
