Yep. Sherman Square at West 72nd Street and Broadway. There is a 24-Hour Papaya/Hot Dog place right there that was once popular with homeless and addicts. The nabe has been well gentrified for at least 25 years now. After being kicked out, the addicts moved first downtown (Tompkins Square), and then to various places in the outer boroughs.
Great movie to watch today to see the Upper West Side when it was at its Lindsay-era worst, along with "Little Murders."
Linday should be a poster boy for the evils of RINOs. It looks like Bloomberg is attempting to re-Dinkins NYC after Rudy turned the city around. :-(
