is that really why they removed it? they go too fast and wear too little clothing? because can't they just keep riding through without the lanealso lol @ We are New York City bicyclists and our message is clear

they're going to wear the same amount of clothing on bikes or not. wizzing by you'll see them for less time.

this is actually pretty funny, though incredibly sarcastic. yes, it calls my house 'krapp' and it's true, my bldg is nothing special or historical but whatever. once all those condos are done, we will be the poor ppl on the street! gentrification at work!― tehresa, Saturday, May 12, 2007 10:36 AM
hahaha so funny because the ppl building the condos still hadn't finished *most* of them by the time i moved 2 years later, including the bldg next door which was just abandoned by the builder.

Hey brooklyn ppl. I will be in Williamsburg for a night next weekend and am trying to find a hotel near there or within a reasonable distance. Any suggestions or am I better off taking the train back into Manhattan and finding one there?
― o sh!t a ˁ˚ᴥ˚ˀ (ENBB), Tuesday, 22 June 2010 03:47 (thirteen years ago) link
As far as I can tell, yr better off staying in another part of Brooklyn. I tried to find a hotel or b&b for my parents last weekend and they ended up staying at St Mark's Hotel right on Astor Place. There just wasn't anything remotely convenient or reasonably priced on the east side of Manhattan near the L train.
Maybe there's an East Village hostel or something that would work?

ha ha cutty - You're never going to let me live that down.
Thanks guys. Might have a place to stay with friends but it's not confirmed yet so just trying to make a backup plan.
Le Jolie is booked. I think I might end up booking at that Park Slope Holiday Inn because I found a good deal online but will check out the other suggestions. Thanks again.

building super tall buildings in Brooklyn is one more step towards nyc becoming the america blade runner, which is what everybody involved in the discussion agrees on is the best possible outcome

I was hanging out on the LIC waterfront recently and I thought it looked like it was designed for people who did not want to feel the slightest reminder that they were in New York City.

I sorta feel like a lot of people live in the city who actually hate living in the city (or cities).and they don't know it yet about themselves, but I do.

maybe these buildings look like dorms and people are trying to relive their cool college years?

I think those lower manhattan buildings are not bad looking, but what's going on in the lower sections -- is that like a parking garage or mall-style retail or something?

― lag∞n, Wednesday, 18 September 2013 18:32 (ten years ago) link
i just hope it's not mall-style like south street seaport though -- the big footprint of the lower half of the building makes it look like some stuff must face the interior of the building. But maybe that's just the movie theater and "Andy Warhol Museum"
― #fomo that's the motto (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 18 September 2013 18:44 (ten years ago) link
that's how I feel about all those new downtown BK buildings like Oro, you're living in a tower above a big congested Manhattan Bridge on-ramp (xpost)

that South Street Seaport mall closed! think they're just building a nicer mall there though basically
