As it happens, a "typical street" is not typically "lined with $100 a plate restaurants" (the "$100 a plate" thing is an obvious exaggeration). Even on typical "gentrified" streets.

The notion that urban streets are actually usually/typically "lined with $100 a plate restaurants" is absurd.
parse parse parse bot for no reason. Gentrification is common across cities, even podunk monstropolies like des moines iowa and green bay wisconsin.
