   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.

   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.
