Why stop there?...before radios were much of a thing the
neighborhood was "Little Syria".
It's true. But the gradual move from an ethnic neighborhood to Radio Row
was slow and took place from within, whereas the razing of Radio Row was relatively abrupt and took place due to outside forces.
But...with the Hudson Terminal towers setting the template,
the matched pair set the epic template that must be
reincarnated in place of the macabre trophy now defiling
the place.
I'm sorry, I always thought the two towers were kind of ugly, and they distract from the ESB. The ESB is the greatest building in the world and deserves to be the dominant spectacle in the NY skyline. (I do agree that
the current building is worse, though).
I did recently eat a Tony's Chocolonely bar and noticed the company address
was at 243 Canal St. Right where the guy with the shop full of tiny CRTs used to be.
