This link should help explain better – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenderloin,_Manhattan. I like using the old historical neighborhood names from the early 20th and late 19th centuries. They seem to fit the work. I am terribly against the new names being designated by real estate developers in order to cash in on gentrification. So much history is being lost here everyday. For example, there is a new name being given to the area of the South Bronx, “The Piano District”, that really has nothing to do with pianos. There were some piano manufacturers there only for a couple of decades. Not long enough to instill any historical significance. I guess in the name of “progress”, people want to forget the difficult times of the past and begin anew.
Keith, well…I see where you’re working, the Garment District but what’s the Tenderloin about?
