The Key To Gramercy Park · Deadsy

[kmp78]

“Yep, it's a big city with 40000 boroughs. 😂. “. - Actually there are only 5 boroughs in Manhattan (often mistakenly called neighborhoods) but over 350 actual neighborhoods throughout the 5 boroughs!! Here’s a slightly gossipy mini travel log some might enjoy. Humor me.

The old money billionaires (like Paris Hiltons family type) mostly live in mid-town Manhattan around Central Park and the exclusive Gramercy Park neighborhood with its resident’s personal key to a locked private park along with their apartment (highlighted in JL’s WeCrashed mini-series.) Gramercy Park was the home of Roosevelt, Thomas Edison, literature and theater luminaries of the early 20th century such as Truman Capote and Edith Wharton and is currently the home of celebrities such as Midler, Delevigne and assorted top models, J. Roberts, Lagerfeld, Fallon and Kate Hudson.

Lots of artsy folks and big film, sports and fashion celebrities; Timberlake, Swift, B and Jay Z, T Brady, Lewis Hamilton, DiNiro, ScarJo, J. Gyllenhaal, Reynolds and Lively, Styles and many more, live or have lived in the lower Manhattan neighborhoods that JL likes to hang out in when he is in town. These include neighborhoods like Tribeca, SoHo, West Village, the Bowery and Chelsea; all home to some of the best boutiques and endless areas to eat and mingle in NYC. FYI:The Bowery is the 7th most expensive neighbor-hood in Manhattan. Lewis Hamilton’s 12,000 sf penthouse in Tribeca recently sold for 50+/- million US dollars!!! Yes, you heard that right and he made somewhere around 6 million $ on the sale. 😵‍💫

Sparked by the influx of successful hip-hop artists and the Barkley Center, many musicians, athletes and successful actors live near or in Brooklyn in places like Dumbo, Red Hook, Park Slope or Williamsburg. Hathaway, Damon, A. Driver, Sarsgaard and M Gyllenhaal, Blunt and Krasinski, Bork, Nora Jones, Hawke, O Wilde, E. Murphy and many more all have homes in Brooklyn.

Queens has several less expensive neighborhoods like Sunnyside, Howard Beach and Astoria (one of the cheapest neighborhoods to live in). While there is an young active nightlife in Astoria and one or two other neighborhoods, Queens is a safer, less expensive place young people go to start out or raise a family. The Fresh Meadows neighborhood was the home of not famous at all, me. 😁

The Bronx has some of the poorest and toughest neighborhoods (around Yankee Stadium) though there are some very beautiful and well kept areas and many old stately stone homes. It’s trying hard to come back.

Staten Island is a much quieter more residential part of the city filled with highly ethnic (heavily Italian) blue collar working class families. (Think Jersey Shore on TV). While a few mid century actors lived there many years ago, no one famous except briefly Pete Davidson who was raised there, seems to want to live there now. Fun Fact: The characters in the movie “Working Girl” starring Harrison Ford and Melanie Griffith, Sigourney Weaver, Alex Baldwin and Joan Cusak are in Staten Island for this flick. Don’t miss this 1988 rah rah rom com feel good movie classic!! (Free by Hulu or Disney subscription or 2.99 Amazon rental or 3.99 some other places in US. Maybe free somewhere but worth a few bucks) You will see the actual SI ferry from the island to Manhattan which you must take daily to get to NY and hear the true Staten Island classic NY accent at its best! Great story and music too !

Well, nobody asked for all this but it is a very awesome city in which I lived, worked for many years and know well ! Beautiful, very exciting, exceptionally cultural and immensely historic (don’t get me started) but expensive to live in for the most part. And now you can all trace JL and Thinnie’s whereabouts around town! 🤪

Thanks, anon! 🤭🙌

I wonder why JL decided not to splurge on a NYC pad anyway, after being on the look-out couple years ago. 🤔

Guess his deal with Bowery saves him a big penny! 🤷🏼‍♀️

one of the very first games i ever owned was atv 2: offroad fury on the ps2. i never did any of the races though. i just used cheat codes to 1) unlock all maps and vehicles and cosmetic options and 2) make it so you couldn’t fall off your vehicle even if you were upside down. and then i just played the free roam mode. i always used the best atv (or maybe the one i thought looked coolest - i was like 6) and tricked it out with a flames paint job and just drove around and made big jumps and stuff (at that time i did not know how to do the tricks or anything). and i would listen to the sick af soundtrack. i really liked “the key to gramercy park” by deadsy. still don’t know anything else about deadsy but that one song.

The Townhouse

https://archiveofourown.org/works/48408283

When you belong to a Gargoyles discord group, and you and the other New Yorker start talking about the BS that is Gramercy Park. Not only that, said New Yorkers then ponder what would happen if Demona, in her human form as Dominique Destine, had to deal with the self-proclaimed Mayor of Gramercy Park.

“Yes, this will do nicely.”  Dominique Destine said as she handed over a cheque for the price of the townhouse in full. Still, the relator wasn’t all that surprised; her eyes widened when she noticed the offer was double what the townhouse was worth. It was the type of money paid when a client of this nature wanted things done quickly and quietly. The architecture was too Victorian for her liking, but it would serve its purpose. Besides, the rooftop study would be perfect for hiding her artifacts and her true purpose in choosing such a luxurious home. If Dominique had learned anything in her long life, it was that humans could not be trusted, especially when magic was involved, unless the spell used was to conquer them. Yet it wasn’t the only reason the upper level, Dominique needed a certain level of privacy at sundown that only this townhouse could provide. The disgusting human she posed as during the day was transformed at night back to her true self, Demona, a Gargoyle. Her former clan didn’t suspect a thing, and she would destroy them from here, along with their human pet, Detective Elisa Maza. A wicked grin appeared on her face when suddenly she was interrupted by a knock at her door and a shrill voice. “Yoo Hoo,” the short white woman dressed impeccably looked down at Demona in her human form. To add to this insult, this pesky human stood in her doorway with an air that demanded she be allowed in. “Arlene Harrison, Gramercy Park Block President,” she said with a fake smile plastered on her thin lips, red lipstick a shade too bright for her pale skin tone. “But you can call me the Mayor. Everyone else does.” “Two can play this game,” Demona told herself as she smiled and extended her hand. “Dominique Destine, co-founder and CEO of Nightstone Unlimited.” “Yes, your relator informed me when she sent over the paperwork,” Arlene said so sweetly that it did little to hide the venom she could spew. “I just wanted to drop off our welcome packet, including a copy of our bylaws and meeting schedule.” The packet was thicker than the Grimorum Arcanorum and would take as much time to study—the gall of this impish woman interrupting Demona’s day and her plans. She wanted to shove the packet right down her stupid human throat but doing so would blow her cover, and Demona needed the privacy the townhouse offered. “Oh, I almost forgot,” Arlene once again interrupted Demona’s thoughts. “Here, this key is for the gate. Make sure you lock up after yourself when you travel out into the city. We don’t want the wrong kind here now, do we.” Demona was floored, watching the self-proclaimed Mayro leave as quickly as she arrived. She knew humans were horrible to one another, but this was a whole new level. It was so casually blatant.   “I should have brought the Brownstone in Carnegie Hill.” Demona groaned, dropping the packet on an end table that came with the property. She would give it to her secretary in the morning to look it over, for now, though the sun was beginning to set, she had other things to attend to.
