Oh cool. I've probably seen it. Do you know how to email it? Just put San Remo Towers into Wikipedia. It gives the history and some pics.

Beth, You gotta bargain with PB. I would think since you're giving your firstborn,that a Gangster BB "family discount" would be in order don't you?  TIS

It might be!
It's really something. As a New Yorker, you never want to appear to be impressed by anything-----lol, but watching the parade from the window on Thanksgiving is just mind numbing.
It's on an old Odd Couple, too. When Felix and Oscar win the car, they give that as their address, then briefly show the building. However, in the opening credits, that's a Park Avenue building shown.

Yeah, he's got a beautiful view. That's for sure. He's been there since the mid-70's. He's a few years older than me and bought his unit only a year or two out of college. By today's market standards, the price he paid would be considered shoplifting. My father always says to him, "Better to be lucky than good." He's right.

Yes, I did see Strawberry Fields, the Dakota, Central Park when I was there. I stayed by Broadway and 47th (Midtown right?). Anyway, looks gorgeous. Nice to see how the other half live. TIS

(Sounds like a porno flick about a waitress). Hi SC, No wonder I was having a hard time getting here. It was the only site I had a problem with. It's fixed now I hope? TIS

Ah ha!!! The truth comes out. It's all Geoff's fault then. Actually, it's no longer taking forever for the pages to load, so I do think it's fixed. TIS

NYC Doorman Suspended for Bad Breath
3 hours ago
A Manhattan doorman has been suspended for having bad breath. Jonah Seeman, who has been ushering tenants into a four-building complex on East 89th Street for 40 years, was told not to come to work Friday because of halitosis.
Seeman said he has stopped eating garlic, uses mouthwash and takes breath mints on the job.
The Brooklyn resident, who supports his 81-year-old mother, has been suspended twice before for bad breath _ one day in May and then again in July.
Apartment dwellers at the Gracie Gardens complex expressed surprise over Seeman's suspension and came to his defense.
"His job, which he does well, is opening the door _ not to be opening his mouth," said Adam Reingold.
Officials with Cooper Square Realty, the management company that oversees the property, did not return calls seeking comment. But the company sent the doorman a letter dated Nov. 21, stating: "We can no longer tolerate the fact that you have severe breath odor while on duty."
The union that represents Seeman, Local 32BJ of the Service Employees International Union, has filed a grievance in the case.

Wouldn't be so bad if it were a tad bigger and you could have others chip in. Still, it would be nice. I'd wanna be right in the heart of the city.
