An over-simiplification? Perhaps. But it helps visualize the crowd. A few celebrities bought property in Gramercy Park, too, so that should be added to the idyllic picture. Let's put it all together: an old lady, her dog and impatient Ethan Hawke cursing them both - there you have it, your Gramercy Park crowd. SAFETYApart from chaotic Washington Irving High School on Irving Pl (which became sort of famous when two students [threw a stool] out of their classroom window, nearly killing a woman down on the street), the area is safe. NAMEGramercy Park is an actual park, located at the very bottom of Lexington Avenue (20th street). It is a private park, which means it's closed to visitors. People who have keys to the gate are apparently those living around the park. But it's also a neighborhood named after... the park, of course. This page is not so much about the park as it is about the neighborhood. Some people prefer to call the neighborhood simply "Gramercy" - leaving out the "park" part and making things a bit too simple. We prefer the confusing terminology which makes it sound like all those rich people actually live in a park. SYNOPSISGramercy Park is a nice little neighborhood if you can deal with old ladies and their dogs. |
