In this weekend's NY Times Real Estate section, an article called "Message From a Stranger" states "85 percent of New Yorkers live in buildings erected before 1970, compared with 42 percent of Americans generally. More remarkably, 39 percent of New Yorkers live in buildings predating 1930 and 17 percent in buildings predating 1920." A great portrayal of the living and breathing fabric that is Manhattan!
So, this week's neighborhood tour will focus on 10th Avenue from 16th to 24th Street. In this stretch of western Manhattan, hip and history intertwine much like the High Line park weaves amongst the buildings. Stay tuned for a video in the next few days!
