>The increasingly empty storefronts in Manhattan are also well-documented. Anyone who's lived in Manhattan for multiple years has noticed this - commercial venues shutting down, and either remaining vacant or being replaced with Chase bank retail branches or megachains. The joke is the city is looking into giving "grants" for small businesses to move into storefronts instead of trying to fix the actual issue. Basically just feeding the bubble.
