1990-1996 Gleason Ave. apt 5H still there. Built in 1927 (going on 100 years). Three and four room apts.
Plaster walls, lead paint, one electrical outlet per room, old fuse boxes. Noisy plumbing and sealed up (painted shut) dumbwaiter shafts since VJ day. I guess by now it has been upgraded many times over the past 50 years.
Still miss growing up in the old place. Great memories. Even when the grouchy super chased us away for playing ace-king-queen against the wall.
