But the fact is, when you're talking about the command infrastructure of the global economy and the cultural economy in the information age, a significant portion of the highest value market and appeal is in midtown Manhattan.
I don't think this is necessarily the last frontier in Manhattan, but it is such an obviously wonderful opportunity for us to use the skills we learned in other neighborhoods to take advantage of this wonderful economy and a city government that apparently is willing to take a leadership role.
As the economy has flourished, we have had an unprecedented period of job growth and prosperity in the last two years.

 Project Renaissance, Mixed Economy
What makes a market economy "good," far more efficient than government command could ever be at immediately making the detailed adjustments of a million-and-one changing conditions which keep most people and resources usefully engaged at their best or near-best uses, is the Directory service provided by freely changing prices and wages.
In command economies, which are less responsive to or even unresponsive to changing wants and needs, unwanted goods pile up; providers of unwanted services go through the motions with their efforts wasted; all the while actual and even vital wants and needs go into shortage or are unmet altogether.
We thus propose that such a "mixed economy" would, in fact, be far freer than the purer free market our ideologues are demanding, aside from whatever further gains in human freedom can be obtained by really effectively addressing some of those public needs which currently are not being well taken care of.
