Not the question to ask, not that it matters. Ask yourself how many people that visit the High Line are from that area, or even New York. Soundsclike the people in that area just want to protect their views, and keep certain people out. NOTHING about this new plan will affect that area more than what is currently planned for that site.

By the way, the casino will provide not just jobs, but MUCH needed income to the state to provide services for all New Yorkers.
