>You would need another mandate to ensure all of the interesting retail, clubs, restaurants, art galleries and street life down there isn't obliterated by the way those buildings are designed at street level. You know (or maybe you don't) those low rise neighborhoods are where people actually go to hang out and feel the real pulse of city life. The city is better by having a mixture of low rise and high rise. Plenty of places to build up elsewhere without razing the last incredibly vibrant and unique neighborhoods in Manhattan.

This is all mumbo jumbo that amounts to nothing.

"Feel the real pulse" ... Ok dude you got it. Hook me up

It's only mumbo jumbo to someone who remains willfully ignorant and has no understanding of New York City neighborhoods. Either you are annoyingly young and immature or you have never spent more than a week in New York. "Dude".
