COVER: Towering Fiasco! The Empty Skyscraper.
Cover: Illustration by Vincent Topazio.
Towering Fiasco By Peter Hellman The 44-floor office building at 1166 Avenue of the Americas has never had a single tenant. Completed in 1974, it was a disaster before it was even built, soaking up over $100 million and putting the squeeze on a great realty company. Here is the story of how it all happened.
if You Knew Harry .. By Harriet Heyman Harry Reasoner has left ABC and gone back to his old stomping ground, CBS, leaving Barbara Walters behind. What does Harry think about that, and about life, and about what might have been?.
Seven Grooms for Seven Sisters By Susan Berman Rabbi Sion Maslaton, head of Brooklyn's Ahi Ezer Congregation in the heart of New York's Syrian Jewish community, is a man with a mission: to find husbands for seven young Syrian women. In Syria, the women were probably doomed never to marry: Political tensions were forcing young *Jewish men to flee the country. Those who remained married teenagers with large dowries. Last summer Syria permitted a few to emigrate--to Brooklyn--and Rabbi Maslaton has his work cut out for him.
Highland Flings By Charles F. Tebo The natives of the Litchfield Hills, in northwestern Connecticut, were less than overjoyed to learn that New York was preparing an article about the area. And no wonder--these lovely highlands have remained almost undiscovered by city folk, and the residents would have liked to keep things that way.
