Downtown Brooklyn Finally Arrives

We dont need another manhattan. we sure as hell dont need "the arrival of 35,000 residents over the next five years". I have always seen Brooklyn as a residential borough, a relaxing and beautiful place. I hate manhattan because its overcrowded, overpriced, jam packed with traffic, and just an overall stressful place. I dont want my hometown to be like that. At this rate everyone who lives in brooklyn will be evicted either because they can't afford their rent or their building will be demolished for skyscrapers.
