1 Gramercy Park West.
Also, I found this interesting - a recent (early 2009) rental listing for an apartment in this building.
Gah. I wonder if they give you a key to that obnoxiously guarded, beautiful park.

The new Five Guys Burgers and Fries opened on Saturday morning, located on 3rd avenue between 43rd and 44th streets. Monday’s lunch rush line was said to wrap around the inside of deep space like a sleeping python. A sleeping python waiting to eat lots of burgers.

UPDATE: The car may have been driving westbound on 34th Street and somehow crossed over onto the South sidewalk and then continued west until barreling into the 300 east 34th Street entryway
At 300 East 34th Street a car supposedly full of three people was driving on the sidewalk until bashing into the entryway of the building. Supposedly no one on the sidewalk was hurt, the people in the car were brought to the hospital. All heresay.
Crazy.

This doorman can carry your groceries - and a tune.
Barry Finer, a fixture at 155 E. 38th St. for 24 years, swapped the lobby for a recording studio as he recorded 16 self-penned songs for his debut CD, “I’m in Love.”
“I’ve heard his music - he plays it in the lobby,” says Jennifer Weissmann, a mother of three who has lived in the building for 12 years. “I think he’s going to be the next Elvis.”

In search of info on the infamous Clover Deli in Murray Hill I came across a flickr account of “someone’s” favorite NYC eats. Clover Deli, of course being one of them, followed by other Murray Hill staples such as Penelope Cafe (yes), Banc Cafe (used to be old school) and Carl’s Steaks (a late night must) . This someone even gets out of the neighborhood, mentioning East Village’s, Frank and Flatiron’s, Shake Shack, and Turtle Bay’s J.P Clarkes. And, there is mention of Washoku Cafe, on 37th between 5th and Madison. New to me, but apparently a gem. Okay.
Who is this o’knowledegable someone? The Real Estate Group! This is a surprise. Check out their website for real estate broker restaurant reviews. Their Great Manhattan Eats flikr album. And, just click the name of each restaurant in the pic comment for a broker’s review. Such as this one about Frank.
I’m just touched by the whole thing.
(by the way, that pic up there is of Clover Deli and their fabulous cupcakes. They may look like just a corner bodega, but they’re not. Around for 60 years and baking up delicious food)
