What kind of an asinine comment is this? It sounds like Brent is some local writer who wants to show off his dubious knowledge of Booker Prize history, perhaps in some pathetic attempt to bring himself to Carey’s attention. What's that got to do w/ riding his bike, anyway. — Desmond Gillespie on TCQ&A: Peter Carey

traffic congestion I agree. total flop — NATIVE on In the News: More on Gitano Outdoor Restaurant

Hotels are now effectively the only residential use (albeit short-term) permissible in manufacturing districts without variances. That is what produced the Trump Soho condo/hotel zoning evasion scheme before it was thwarted by lawsuit. No one is manufacturing in Soho any longer, but local politicians and long-time tenant lobby groups have resisted changing the manufacturing zoning to prevent (or rather slow down) development. The City--desperate for more tax revenue--should recognize reality and change the M1-zoned district to allow residential use with an affordable housing provision if it wants to exclude hotels and transients/tourists. The manufacturers are not coming back. — James on In the News: Harvey Weinstein Turned Himself in at the 1st Precinct
