A waterfront view, and the obstructed vista overlooking NJ and far beyond is a major ‘value added’ feature for a NYC residence; building anything other than residential on that site is a complete missed opportunity.
I remain perplexed at how many Hudson River views have been squandered in NYC with sanitation facilities, parking garages, salt shed structures, potential sports arenas, bus depots, stadiums, etc.
What am I missing here? I just don’t get it!
