I live in Cape Town and New York is one of my favourite destinations. I visit your city at least once a year and of course Florent more than once while i'm there. It goes without saying that Florent is tops on my recommendation list for all the visitors coming from this part of the world. What a shame that the Landlord has no respect and that he has succumbed to the greed of a few more dollars. Heritage and culture are losers in a world where fashion and trend seem to dictate the path to success. What separated New York from the rest was its pride and individuality, now its fast becoming like every other major city around the world - a dedicated follower of fashion, a clone of the new age; another great loss to your beautiful city.
