Tim’s take
He is done with Manhattan and says so directly, swearing he'll never buy there again and joking he'd kill himself before moving back 3:53. His stated reason is that it has gone corporate — mom-and-pop stores and characters replaced by $300 sushi places — while Queens and Staten Island still have the old New York feel he actually misses 1:37:58 1:17:25 14:33.
Otherwise it's shorthand for money and detachment: the default backdrop for elites who don't care about regular America 59:20, for absurd condo prices and foreign buyers 3:18, for a land-lease scam he nearly fell into 32:26, and for Epstein-adjacent shady real estate 1:11:10. He still name-drops its convenience when it suits him, hopping a helicopter there to the Hamptons even while calling the tours reckless 1:21, and uses it as the gold standard of wealth even Palisades money doesn't reach 24:31.
