Miscellany

Time for another round-up of various bits of Tudor Cityana.     

First off, a look at the corner of E. 41st Street and Prospect Place, later Tudor City Place; Haddon Hall lay in the distance. This southwest view would eventually become Tudor Gardens but for now was home to tennis courts and lined by taxicabs. At center is the tiny, dome-shaped booth of the dispatcher for Parmalee cabs, who had an exclusive contract with Tudor City.

From a 1938 issue of Tudor City View comes the crossword puzzle for the colony.    

Alas, the answers were as vague as the subject.

A postcard that shows 42nd Street ‒ Looking East from 6th Avenue ‒ New York. Is the building at the far end of the street Prospect Tower? 

Who's to say?
