"The cozy enclave"

I choose to believe in omens.

And when they're good ones, so much the better.

I closed on the apartment last week, and yesterday the NYTimes published an article about my neighborhood and it's new desirability, even calling out my building and showing a picture of it. 

Coincidence? Maybe.

But I choose to think it's a good sign too.

The piece describes Sutton Place as a "cozy enclave by the East River" and "homey".

With younger people and newer businesses moving into the neighborhood, the area has taken on a new sense of being a "little community".

You can see the article here.

Lots of lovely wintery photos are featured that give a sense of the regal gentility of the blocks and architecture.

Here are a few:
