"The only reason people's feathers are getting ruffled here is because people who bought overpriced apartments 2 years ago thinking they were on the UWS, have to admit now that they're in the same zip code as the projects. The thing that's so funny about real estate is the the neighborhood boundaries mysteriously shift when it comes to desirability. i.e. if a murder takes place in Brooklyn on 15th st. and 7th ave., it's Sunset Park. However if a broker is trying to peddle an apartment on 22nd and 5th, they'll call it Park Slope!!!" [The New York Times Stumbles Into Manhattan Valley]
