Notes
- ↑ Satow, Julie. "'Historic' Doesn't Rule Out 'New'", The New York Times, May 9, 2013. Accessed August 1, 2016. "But although the character of the tenants has shifted, the historic neighborhood, which some call NoMad (for North of Madison Square Park) and which is bounded by 25th and 29th Streets, between Madison Avenue and Avenue of the Americas, has seen very little new construction since the Great Depression."
