Not quite correct, Ken. Down the block there is a doctor's office with a shingle outside proclaiming the practice of DR. MARY WILSON, who is, of course, Mrs. F. Paul Wilson. Mary's not a doctor; we all know Paul is, so I found that office sign hilarious.
There is a lovely block between York Avenue and the East River at East 58th Street, and it's on that lovely block that I think Gia lives. I think her house is the biggest on the block, which would be on the north side at the eastern most end of the block, overlooking the 59th Street Bridge and the East River.
Those photos are no longer available because Yahoo booted us all out, and I haven't gotten 'round to reposting them through photobucket. Just too much damn effort to do all over again.
Quote:And although I don't know New York; in THE TOMB, it mentions Jack walking out the front door of his apartment house, and looking to the right he can see the Museum of Natural History.
I've always thought Jack might live on West 82nd between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues, closer to Columbus.
Quote:And Doug Gleason's apartment from ALL THE RAGE was DUMBO (Down Under the Manhatten Bridge Overpass.
Take a walk over the Brooklyn Bridge, which every tourist to Manhattan should do as a matter of course. As you're facing Brooklyn, look to the left, and any of those former factories now apartment buildings could be Doug's building. DUMBO has become a fun place to visit; lots of nifty restaurants.
There's the East River walkway at 77th Street where a really graphic killing took place. Somebody left his heart there. There is a walkway crossing over the FDR Drive at 77th Street, and a tiny cul-de-sac under that walkway that can be seen only if you walk to it and stand right in front of it. Great place for a murder.
I had great pics of that, too, phooey on Yahoo.
There's NY Hospital on the East River where Gia was hospitalized after her traffic accident.
Oh, so many places.
