Writing lessons

Reason number 500 why the New York Times is my “paper of record;” a three page article about a rolling ladder company in Manhanttan that encompasses history, family, business, fashion, and architecture. Along with some poignant, pointed language.
What a lovely article. Though I suspect I would have divorced Greg Monsees also.
I simply love this line “The building roots them, as a stalwart anchor in a turbulent sea.” I need to slow down more and take time to read the NY Times again.

That was a wonderfully written article, and a fascinating story. Thanks for sharing it.
Of course, it makes me daydream about having my dream library some day. Which, naturally, would have shelves high enough to merit a rolling ladder.

god, I love that article, and it makes me so sad, too. i lived in SoHo in the late 70’s - I probably walked past their building a hundred times without knowing what it was.

Thanks for pointing me to this article. I don’t get to read the NYT as often as I’d like. This was wonderful.
