Neighborhood Chat / Re: Target coming to jackson Heights

 I'm interested to see how Target changes the dynamics of that location. I really do see where people are coming from when it comes to big business infiltrating areas and putting Mom and Pops out of business. The thing is JH small business was on the path to decay way before we were a twinkle in Targets eye. Look at 37th ave with all the closed storefronts. This is not because of big corporations pushing out the little guys. Owners of these properties are asking ludicrous amounts of money per SQFT. In addition, let's not forget about the bureaucracy you have to go through in order to sell your first cup of Latte. Whether we like it or not JH is on the radar of big business (82nd Street) and the property owners are well aware of a possible big payday coming.

It really depends on the building. This article might be of use to you.

Hello all,

I bought an apartment there three years ago. It might be because it's a walk-up with no garden in the back. JHReader what are your theories? Wlirfan where did you eventually purchase you place?
