Street of Midtown West <\/div>\n<\/div>Being a real estate agency, we are always concerned with what is going on in the market today. High-rises that are being built, the \u2018images\u2019 of the different neighborhoods that are changing\u2026even logistical changes in subways and roads play an important role in our ability to find the right apartment for you!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recently, a new plan to rezone part of New York City\u2019s west side has been interrupted: a big thing for many New Yorkers.<\/p>\n

Mayor Bloomberg once called it \u201cthe single most important economic project that this city has undertaken in decades\u201d<\/strong>, and it was created, mainly to attract the 2012 Olympics to New York City<\/a>. Bloomberg\u2019s ambitions to redevelop West Side Manhattan, transforming warehouses, factories, parking lots and railroad tracks between Penn Station and the Hudson River seem to be in danger, even more now the economy is shaking.<\/p>\n

The New York Times recently posted an article\u00a0 on their website stating that the redevelopment problems of West Side Manhattan were caused by logistical problems, the economical \u2018dip\u2019 and, according to critics, \u201cflaws\u201d in the design of the Redevelopment Plans.<\/p>\n

Is this a period of concern or is it an opportunity to think about this city\u2019s future?<\/p>\n

It can be disappointing for many parties involved, including apartment owners and renters, when redevelopment plans do not work out the way they were planned. The good thing about an economic decline or slowdown, however, is that more time will have to be spent on rethinking strategy, which will hopefully result in better plans for the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Robert D. Yaro, the President of the Regional Plan Association, acknowledges that it is unaffordable to implement everything that was planned. It is now time to make some serious choices. The question is: What will be changed and how will it affect this city\u2019s image? Will it affect the number and type of accommodations in this neighborhood?<\/p>\n

First, it is time to consider this city\u2019s budget and then we will just have to wait and see how this part of New York will be changed. Tell us what you think, because and we are happy to read your comments on this issue.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, wouldn\u2019t it be nice to spend your holiday in the West Side before all the changes\u00a0occur. \u00a0Consider apartment rentals in the Upper West Side<\/a> or vacation rentals in Midtown West<\/a>.\u00a0For example,\u00a0take a look at this Studio apartment in Clinton – Midtown West (NY-2351) <\/a>near where these projects have been proposed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
