He loves his city as a lifetime beloved woman,with passion and lyricism.
I guess he is not Anglo Saxon as he loves verbal provocation and fighting
I admit he is a bit outdated but at least he is not formatted and globalized.Imo he should have his own blog and find his audience among people who simply call things for what they are:is it stupid to mention chinese polish sausages?lol!
No dudes! JR is not a ass licker!
Only in New York lads!

I think he adds a fun factor to the forum plus he is an insider. Funny though because I was in the city two weeks ago and I was like, damn, this is the age of ramses.
I do like the non-politically correct element to him as I hate those that are politically correct. As the great George Carlin once said, "the pussification of man". And that's really what this society has become. Bunch of sensitive wimps. Eh, but that's the New Yorker attitude I guess with JR. Speaks his mind, and will tell you off when necessary. Also, half of the time he is joking but people nowadays can't take jokes; even if harsh. I could go on, but maybe thats a topic for a thread. Why has society become so sensitive?
But anyways, lets enjoy this tower for what it is. No sense in despair. Look at what we are getting, and in a sense, most around the world would be happy. Its just NYC has such a high standard that something that would become an icon in most cities is way below the passing score for NYC. Thats what a city of great architecture does to designs. It eats them up, and curb stomps them if they are not a 100% epic. Lets not forget that its 1,340 feet. This will be a monolith with its dimensions.
