my downstairs neighbor kat gives me her New York magazines when she's done with them, but this one article she particularly directed me to b/c we have been having the anxiety producing conversation about real estate in brooklyn probably since we met.
i don't know who this joel lovell is, but as someone who moved to NYC right as its mallification began (1999), i feel what he's saying. i am not sure if i am part of the problem or if i entered into a shift already in progress (probably a bit of both), but this article on how a recession of sorts might give us all the swift kick in the ass we need to stop being such materialistic jerks was quite poignant.
read it!
