The landmarks discussed eternally crowded St. Patrick’s Cathedral (Map 12). are highly idiosyncratic choices, and this list is by no means complete or even logical, but we’ve included an array of places, from world famous to little known, all worth visiting.

Gallery 51X backed eighties-era graffiti artists like Keith Harlng and Basquiat. At No. 77 Leon Trotsky edited the dissident newspaper Novy Mir in 1917. Years later in the same building, the poet W.H. Auden and the artist Larry Rivers lived below. At the Holiday Coctail Lounge, Alan Ginsberg drank.

    Famous Long Ago Michael Uhl 13 2 SAFE RETURN “In a Large Vintage

    Famous Long Ago Michael Uhl 2 SAFE RETURN “In a large vintage office building off New York City’s Union Square, an area which has traditionally been the headquarters for groups involved in radical causes, there is a Dos Passosan office which is a chaos of newspapers, books, files and posters. On the door, a letterhead announcing the Citizens’ Commission on U.S. War Crimes is scotch taped to the glass.” That’s how the writer James Reston, Jr. described the two room suite Tod Ensign and I occupied on the tenth floor at 156 Fifth Avenue on the uptown corner of West 20th Street. Reston’s geography, stretched for effect, was a few blocks off but the atmospherics were on target.1 This was New York City’s Movement building where many left-wing groups had their headquarters in the late Sixties and early Seventies, including Vietnam Veterans Against the War. And it was here that, during the fall of 1971, Tod and I brain stormed daily about what we might still accomplish politically to help keep the smoldering Vietnam War visible in the minds of an American public for whom the decade long conflict appeared to be over. In the interim the old CCI letterhead remained stuck to the door. Every morning I would walk to the office from my apartment on East 5th Street near First Avenue. Most days I’d follow the same route: across St. Marks Place and up Fourth Avenue toward Union Square, then along Broadway, crossing on 20th Street one short block west to Fifth Avenue.
