Welcome to the 'Hood

Looks like TheLadders.com world headquarters will be getting a new neighbor.

(Cue ominous music)

The Donald!

That's right, Donald Trump announced plans for a 45-story hotel directly across the street from our office (hotel to be built at 246 Spring St.).

Let's see, what do guests of the new hotel have to look forward to?

- Deafening noise from drivers waiting to get into the Holland Tunnel (from 3:30 to 6:30 PM, Monday - Friday)? Check.

- Being directly across the street from a loading dock for a pretty big office building, a loading dock that smells like rotting garbage, coincidentally? Check.

- Being directly across the street from the worst Starbucks I've ever been to, yet continue to go to every morning? Triple venti check!

- 70+ hard working employees of TheLadders.com? Check, check, check (times 70)!

If that's not enough, and really, could it ever be enough, let's have the New York Post sum it up:

The building, which will rise in a fringe area of SoHo - about three blocks from the Holland Tunnel - will tower above the nondescript neighborhood.

Reservations are going fast...
