You make no sense. You're telling me they are creating all of this new residential space with NO demand? That's just stupid. Everyone knows of the residential demand in New York. That's anywhere and everywhere. That's why there is constant new residential space going up all over the city, not just in Manhattan. And the only thing that hampers that is the zoning. When a tower is built here, there will be demand for it. And I hope I don't have to tell you anything about the demand for hotel space.

Listen, you relax. Let me explain something to you, and anyone else who may be having trouble comprehending this. New York is a very large city. But in the vastness of the city, there are relatively
very few places where you can build a tower of the height proposed here. Very few places where you could build a tower of half this height in the city. If you happen to live in one of these areas, and are shocked (shocked!) that a tower of this scale might rise, well, there's a word for you. But far be it from me to say it.
