Way before skyscrappers filled this town with tiny apartments, NYC was home to bonafide estates and rural farmhouses. Now, in between the edifices in this asphalt jungle, they still live on.
New York is a city known for its largesse—grand department stores, huge museums, seriously tall buildings. But there is a gentler, smaller side to our town, where you can visit both modest and elegant dwellings of former New Yorkers—from poets to politicians to everyday folks. Today, these treasured homes are open to the public so that you, too, can get a glimpse of what life was like in Old New York, when a calling card was needed for a gentleman to pay a lady a visit, and, way before overly caffeinated New Yorkers made an afternoon run to Starbucks, teatime began promptly at 4 pm.

Trompe L'Oeil Triumphant
Early works by Stephen Posen (b. 1939)—New York-based artist and, incidentally, father of fashion designer Zac Posen—are on display in “Threads: Paintings From the 1960s and ’70s,” an ambitious two-part exhibition at Vito Schnabel Projects (thru June 23, this page) and its sister gallery in St. Moritz, Switzerland (July 28–Sept. 2). “Untitled” (detail, left), a large-scale, photorealist painting of cloth-covered boxes from 1970, has never been publicly shown in New York until now.
