Even sadder than losing a view? Gaining a view when a building is demolished, only to lose it again when new construction goes up. The Times chats with a few such new construction victims, like the neighbors of the old Hunter College School of Social Work building on 79th Street. And some neighbors of the future One57 had to move their grand piano to their other home because it was getting too much light once a parking garage on the site was demolished. [NYT]
