After months of a stop-work injunction that kept construction on the
Trump SoHo Hotel Condominium (warning: site has nasty automatic music) ground to an unfinished halt, I've noticed over the past few weeks that the little external construction elevators are moving again, and the glass panels are once again climbing toward the top. I found an unsurprising article in the
New York Times that talks about Trump getting his building permit upheld after it was called into question.
Yes, it's entirely out of place in the neighborhood, and yes, it damages the small-village character of SoHo. But I can't fight Trump, so I've decided to get used to that glass monstrosity towering over everything. The picture above is from February 10th, from Spring St., near Thompson St., at dusk.
I was standing in front of
Metropolitan Hardware . . . note the little forklift in the bottom left corner.
