Throughout this semester, we have dicussed how architecture and the construction of big developments affect the “look” of New York City.  But, beyond the skyline, we must remember that there are peopl at a ground level that are affected by these structures.  In particular, Citifield has been an almost billion dollar investment by Citigroup that has really changed how the area of Corona and College Point looks aesthetically.  Do the residents feel it is an eyesore?  Do they like Citifield?  How has it impacted them personally or professionally?  How does contruction affect a local area?
