A Look at Lost City [AM New York]
too many families live in NYC. they should move to the suburbs.
Nice photo!
so where did those 5000 people who moved to brooklyn in 2007 go, 2:26?
they are all homeless?
Sorry, 9:24. Hopes not lived up to. Nerves hit as well. Fucked buyers will desperately cling to their weak ass population argument. Like 0.35% will be sustainable through this recession. Like 0.35% even distributes well into the Brooklyn condo/brownstone pool of buyers. Like 0.35% is even to be believed.
Population changes aint saving the excess fat in home “values”. Next!
even with the .35% increase in population a year, we’ll still be at nearly 9 million in 2030.
you don’t think that’s a lot, 9:24?
that’s larger than los angeles and chicago combined.
thank you 10:32.
the addition of every condo in atlantic yeards (should it happen) would be 14,000. and everyone says that’s insanity.
that’s HALF the amount that moved to NYC JUST LAST YEAR.
9:24 is an idiot.
9:24 is also not taking into consideration the explosion of families in nyc and the increased births it will bring in the next 20 years.
9:24:
So at this rate that’s only 540,000 new people moving to the city between 2007 and 2030.
A little less than the entire city of Boston!
Gee, I think a town the size of Boston moving to NYC is pretty impressive. Where do we fit it?
Sounds like a lot of new development headed our way!
I would hope that the small population increase for NYC last year will quiet these folks who keep repeating the foolish projections (by PlaNYC) about 1 million more NYers by 2030.
enough with the yonic pictures please.
