Christopher Gray's wisdom - now in pajama format
Christopher Gray, the real estate historian at the New York Times, this weekend updated his much-referenced column from a decade ago on how to research the history of a building in the city. Now he’s added all the online resources that make it easier to find the history of a building in New York. Now you can do it from home in your pajamas. Among the options are: Landmarks Preservation Commission, New York City Department of Buildings, Office for Metropolitan History (a site set up by Gray himself,) nycPropertyResearch.com, New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, and the New York Society Library.
Some of Gray’s best columns are collected in his book, New York Streetscapes : Tales of Manhattan's Significant Buidlings and Landmarks.
