1,760 Acres. That’s How Much More of Manhattan We Need
- vanusa 5y agoHand-wavy doesn't begin to describe the cost-benefit analysis behind this (like what's it, umm, gonna cost to build all that high-elevation land that far out into the water? He doesn't even provide a ballpark estimate). And on top of that: We can call the created area New Mannahatta (referring to the name the Lenape gave to Manhattan). Yeah, stealing the language of the people who were exterminated to make way for your ancestors' colonial settlement is great way to sell your hot new development project.
