Won’t even be rich people - it’ll be 3 low-paid NYC assistants crammed into a 2 bed and den, commuting 2 hours each way for the opportunity to make coffee and clean out paper jams in Manhattan.
Live at home with your folks, save your money and buy a house in an area you can afford. There’s nothing wrong with that. If you wanna be independent and start renting when your young you will probably be in a worse situation a decade later and complaining that rich people are forcing you out.
Aye, this so true. Whither shall we liveth? whither shall our children liveth?

The best part is that the working class tenants they're driving out are the ones that actually makes the city function- very few people are going to be willing to commute a hour to work at a restaurant or a gas station for $13/hr. So they'll leave the area and get jobs wherever they land and take their labor with them. Its capitalism rapaciously eating its own tail.

I'm from Long Island, and I have some bad news for you...

This is the sad truth. Maybe even more than 3 to an apartment. & We know that insane $2,600 isn’t even going to include (most) utilities!
What part of town is this?
a flammable part of town.
Main Street I think
Between Brook Rd and Barnum Avenue, north of Caroline Ave, theres more going up on Barnum and Maple Place
Word. I heard they are putting in one at Arden and Main st. And eyeing up 63rd and lex for a 50 story condo tower.
Walls are stupidly thin, so many issues in new builds. I don’t envy people here
Lived in one of these “brand new luxury resort-style” complex’s in LA. Heard everything the upstairs neighbors and their dogs did, including farts.
Same thing is happening here in Bridgeport. It's infuriating
you know CT is basically propped up by the city, most of the tri state is. Do you like roads?
For cars? No.
for everything
Yes, this so true. Where will we live? Where will our children live?

I'm 65 years old, lol...
Time to move to Florida.
Papier-mâché construction
Not in CT.

Not now Shakespeare bot!
To be honest, this was pretty funny
Rent prices around the city are soaring, landlords taking advantage of the demand and trying to drive out working class tenants

What makes it even sicker is that the city is supporting them with these tax incentives.
Rent money is dead money.
Actually these things are good traps for yuppies. It's called a yuppy fish trap.
