I actually wouldn't mind the building if it wasn't so fucking tall.

And to make things even worse, I'm actually moving into a 16-story Midtown apartment building, because we need more space. It's not exactly my ideal living environment. But it does have laundry in the basement. And it's on a really ugly block anyway, near the Queensboro bridge, so it's not damaging any urban fabric. (excuses, excuses...)

Back to Astor Place, that thing is hella annoying and crap. I agree with Alex.
― Aaron W (Aaron W), Friday, 13 August 2004 13:25 (nineteen years ago) link
what's funny is that i've lived on ludlow for three years now, and every year our landlord has LOWERED our rent.

I mean: is that doughy-looking foreskin thing going to be it? Because I'm sorry I think that's just frickin cool! And I guess I can sort of see how it would be too tall, but hey if you're going to create a gigantic foreskin, build big, baby. Don't let anyone forget what that mohel did to you.
It's not like Astor Place was some kind of down-home human-sized place before this started, either. It's been K-Mart, Starbucks, and Crunch gym hell for YEARS now, if you're inclined to see it that way, and I honestly don't see how this is going to make much of a difference in that regard. St. Marks will continue to be the most annoying street in the entire world. As long as they keep the $11 fade barbershop down there under the street I'll be happyno, HONORED to walk past a 1:28 rendering of a man's most private surgery on the way to getting my follicles chopped.

This will look about a thousand times better than the Sculpture For Living.

i'm still sort of bummed out that the shrouded, cloth-draped model of the sculpture for living as it appeared just before its unveiling wasn't the actual design of the building

i had to work in the show/sales room for the new phillipe st4rck building in gramercy yesterday. that place is bonkers. i stared at a huge rhino head all day and had to wear all black.

people kept asking if the rhino was real, I had no clue and just said I didn't think rhino skin was that monochromatic. it was the most ridiculous temp job I think I have ever had. I got a ridiculous amount of money to sit at a desk with nothing on it and give people St4rck water when they showed up for their appts.
