One of my favorite things to do on a trip! I've never been to Gramercy Park, but I do have a cookbook from The Gramery Tavern, not sure if it is located anywhere nearby, but it certainly is a wonderful cookbook!

I didn't know the history of the area as we walked around the park. <br />The locked park with resident's keys was the norm in the 19th century posh residential areas in the UK, and you can still see examples today.

Ruggles is an old family name in my dad's family that came from New England. I wish I knew more of their history. Very interesting!

I know my daughter tried to box up all the things that she didn't need in the near future, labeling them for the new room they would go in. She has also learned to get rid of things that aren't too important. I have a hard time there because I am a bit of a keeper. Good luck. It must be exciting to plan for a new chapter in your life.<br />The Gathering Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13179272291986513212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-31691492841166714852012-08-30T14:53:04.363-04:002012-08-30T14:53:04.363-04:00I haven't been to Gramercy Park in years.

I used to wonder who lived in those beautiful buildings, more importantly, how they could afford it. :)<br /><br />A very special place. Thanks for featuring it. I will miss these New York tours once you go west.
