The elevator had simply given up. What if a subway train also refused to move? I began walking seventy blocks at a time or splurging on taxis. But on this day I had taken the N train. Somewhere between Forty- ninth Street and Forty-second Street, a signal failed and we ground to a halt. For forty minutes, we stood still.

DISTRICT MONTHLY INTRODUCING: “COVID SUCCESS STORIES” Following a year of tragedy and heartbreak, like the improbable buds of new growth that rise from scorched ground after a forest fire, signs of life have begun to blossom from the pavement of West 47th Street. Through the ashes of COVID-19 sprout daily stories of rebirth and renewal within the Diamond District. Starting with our May 2021 edition, Diamond District Monthly will attempt to share these stories in a new feature called COVID Success Stories. HATZALAH OF MIDTOWN NEEDS HELP SAVING LIVES IN THE DIAMOND DISTRICT The sight of the Hatzalah of Midtown ambulance parked off Fifth Ave. on West 47th Street may be so familiar that many Diamond District regulars no longer notice it. But whether or not you notice the ambulance isn’t important; just as long as it’s there when you need it. Unfortunately, the dire effects of the COVID pandemic over the past year have severely strained the organization’s finances leaving some to wonder just how available Hatzalah of Midtown will be in the future should the need arise.
