Astor Row

I'm apartment-hunting these days, hoping to find a place that's 1) $1000 or under, 2) has much more closet space (and is generally bigger--I'm feeling awfully cramped with my two tabby terrors chasing each other around the apartment, and 3) not run by my current property manager. What this means is I'll probably have to live much more uptown--I really hate to leave Hell's Kitchen but unless a miracle apartment drops into my lap, I'm going to have to. So I'm looking at a place in Sugar Hill tonight and came across this entry in Wikipedia: Astor Row in Harlem. This is where I lived with Tracy and Ryan--Ryan still lives here. He'd told me when I first moved in that there was an Astor connection, but this entry is interesting--I didn't realize most of those homes (including the one where we lived, I assume) had been declared historical landmarks. Peter used to visit me between shows when I lived there, and we ate at Sylvia's which is nearby. I loved walking down the sidewalk to our apartment, seeing all the improvements owners had made to their places.
