Once set and done, the Hudson Yards will become a major player for business (and the surrounding areas in its proximity). Don't worry though, the WTC complex will be built. Give it time... patients is the key. We are witnessing the 21st Century downtown of NY being developed as we speak. Something very positive to think about.
Midtown is only the future because the city has made it the future, they CHOSE to develop the area RIGHT NOW. They could have easily directed more resources to rebuilding the WTC sit, as it should be. Leaving an empty space in such a major city is unacceptable.
