it was supposedly at one point inhabited by wild dogs. i like to picture them all in there, running around in a circle, sliding down the sugar sluices, tongues hangin out.

oh no! at least when the squatters came in, the adopted the dogs. there will be no place for the little guys here

where ist he "yuppie go home"/"gentrifcation happens, move on." option?

i miss those die yuppie scum graffiti stencils

i thought this was already expensive apartments? who lives there now? is it just empty?

it is empty now.
i went to the scoping meeting at city planning for this and all of the longer-term residents (who were mostly latino and, presumably, lower-income) were completely in favor of this project because of the affordable housing elements.

then there was a 90 year old from greenwich village who didn't like it at all.

wait were all those guys sugar dogs????
