  1. It’s raining, sunny, or what will the weather be like? It cannot reduce my interest on development. Right now, I sit and read by myself, not as a team: Thank you.

  2. Finally!

    This block is such an eyesore. So much new development along E 161st St.

  3. Hurray!
    More Buildings!
    More People!
    More Density!
    More Traffic on our streets, subways and busses, etc.,
    While our fragile infrastructure
    continues to crumble.

    This is the Evil of Rezoning:
    One less Family Home.
    The is No Planning for our true needs.
    Who profits?
    Ruthless Real Estate Opportunists.
    Who loses?
    We The Community.

    Shame on all the talentless architects for knocking out another hideous building.
    Is this your best work?
    Do you have any concept of style?
