Also, the writer (and this is typical) hasn't noticed how much rents have fallen in 2 years (last I checked 15%) simply because of how much building is being done. It was an amusing read but it was mostly noise, IMO.
The writer is misattributing the problem (empty storefronts) to "real New Yorkers" being crowded out by ghostly foreign investors, when actually it's just e-commerce that's doing this in not only but all over America.
