I’ve gotta give props to author and fellow NYC tourguide Heather Holland Wheaton for either inventing or repeating the term GroZo in reference to any hip, new loft space going up near the 16 acre site of the World Trade Center. Mark my words, it’s only a matter of time before a Whole Foods and a Bliss Spa open up. Anyone who thinks this term is offensive or inappropriate knows nothing about living in New York the past 4 years and 3 months.
Thanks Jordon for the credit (and Im sure someone will send me a death threat for itor worsea God Bless America teddy bear). I did coin phrase GroZo, but my definition of it is the whole World Trade Center Site not just the trendy loft spaces that are being built. Once the Freedom Mall goes up with the new Walmart and the worlds largest Starbucks, GroZo will be a cute neighborhood where people from all over can come and shop and eat and contemplate the values of the United States.
