I didn't read the 21 pages either but sweeping generalizations about a city with eight million people, based on as little as one business closing doesn't sound wise. Places close, new ones open up, neighborhoods change, the past is the past. One wave of new people replaces another. Its the most basic part of urbanism. The worst kind of "death" a city can have is when people stop going there, when the well of human capital dries up.
Pollyanna?
