  1. I LOVE industrial buildings. Those are not the buildings I have a problem with. And industrial or not, there’s nothing wrong with keeping a place cleaner and greener. In fact the more industry, the more trees are needed to clean the air.

  2. hmmm… so much hate.

    williamsburg is appealing because of several factors, though i don’t ever hear anyone advertising it as being green and leafy or full of old world charm.

    if it the location works in terms of proximity to manhattan (work, school, etc.), why not?

    To each his/her own!
