They will be overrun with workers looking forward to their 50 Cent tips and being blamed for high prices

I’m all for revitalization of the square, but it seems like a realllllly big reach that 7 apartments on the second floor of a building will do the trick.

The Sun reported what they were told to say. Obviously this is just the beginning but ultimately the developer will get what he wants as they do have the power.

But, but I read this above to save the day..............

"It could come back as a resident only "social center" with things like pool tables, dart boards, vintage pin ball machines and other supervised games."

With good food, good entertainment and good management could possibly succeed.

Your amenity fees pay for the rec centers. They are not dependent of people spending money to survive...

They would recoup they demo costs in five years.

Maybe that would make the anti-condo peeps happy.

:ho:

This is about the upper floors of a building that already has tenants on the lower floors. The stores are there with leases.

Entropy!
 
If KB's was really beloved by so many Villagers then it would have been packed daily & profitable (like Piesanos). KB's is dead & gone as are many undeniably famous restaurants past their heyday; Brown Derby, Elaine's, The Stage Deli, Chasen's, etc. When you can no longer accept change, you are too old & past your own expiration date!

Think "Entropy": Entropy applies to every system in business, including business-processes, system-configurations, work-rosters, business-models, facilities, resources. Everything decays and/or goes out of date. Entropy applies just as much to people in business: memory fades, capability fades, people leave, people die. And there’s nothing we can do about that fact: it’s inevitable, and irreversible.

The micro issue is about the second floor, the big picture issue is over-all profitability of the structure. Leases are not required to be renewed.

Only if customers spend money, which isn't the KB history.

That is why some restaurants enforce a policy of minimum billings. Either buy some thing or dont let the door hit you in the _____ on the way out
