The exclusive downtown private club that's too cool for corporate suit-and-tie types just kicked about 500 of them out! Too bad that's the only kind that wants (or can afford) to hang at your overpriced, Meatpacking digs.
"First of all, the only people who want to pay $1800 a year on top of exorbitant food and drink prices to hang out in the Meatpacking District are the exact type of people they want to get rid of. Have you been down those cobblestone streets lately? It's full of Scandinavian tourists, hoochie mommas from New Jersey trying to have their Carrie Bradshaw moment, and guys who wear a jacket and tie to hide the fact that the fattest thing on their body—next to their wallet—is their gut. There's even an Ed Hardy store down there, for fuck's sake."
