New Chabad Houses Show Gentrification Trends
Perhaps it was only a matter of time. In a city defined by runaway gentrification — where high-fashion shops like Stella McCartney’s and high-end hotels have nearly nudged out the last of the meatpackers, and where Williamsburg has become hipster central — Chabad has come to the Bowery.
