NYC???? WTF would ANYONE want to live in NYC????? What a HELLHOLE!
When I was a kid starting out in the antiques restoration trade I worked for a shop whose most important client owned the largest plot of land of beachfront property on North Ocean Drive. I seem to recall the grounds were 50+ acres, but that can’t possibly be correct. It had a huge elegant Spanish style mansion on it, and when the property was sold years later the mansion was demolished and some monstrosity was built in its place. I only know that to an 18-y.o. son of a Baptist preacher it was a whole different universe.
Nice for you to post information from FEBRUARY. Lots has changed since then in NYC.
Shoot, I didn’t recall any of the details correctly. It was 50 years ago... Here is the story. I did not know the Trump connection.
There are some parts of New York City that were quite nice the last time I visited them.
Millionaires? pfft. The billionaires live in Jupiter, Florida.
“I guess there will be hordes of homeless millionaires.”
One can still buy a very, very nice house for between $1 million and $2 million in most parts of the USA.
At the very top level, many houses have lost much quality due to poor choices in remodeling.
Many new huge houses are quite ugly inside. The builders may have seen countless exteriors, but relative few interiors.
My question is who the heck wants to live in one of those high-rises anymore after that colkapse of that one?
I know someone that will sell a place for a bundle of money and it’s move-in ready...
February THIS year rents and property prices in Manhattan were collapsing.
Now why don’t you post a link to support your ridiculous post # 9 which claimed and I quote from you:
“There are lines around the block for apartments in all of NYC and people are signing leases sight unseen”.
