Judging by readers' feedback, it seems much of Manhattan is still exercised by a recent piece in The New York Times on class distinction in the city. Class snobbery was increasingly based on property, the article said. It sounded like Manhattan was growing to resemble Hong Kong in this respect. But unlike Hong Kong, where everyone can guess how much rent someone pays and where their kids go to school by the area they live in, New Yorkers seem to have grasped this idea late.
