Fascinating that back in 69 she was referring to lack of housing as one of the nations critical problems. I can't imagine it was nearly as bad as it is now. I'm a lifelong New Yorker and back in the 90s when I needed to find an affordable decent sized apartment in the boroughs it wasn't that difficult, try that now.

What a fascinating, intelligent discussion about architecture and the impact of buildings and building preservation between these three people! Burt Lancaster was a knowledgeable man. Don't have this in talk shows anymore today.

That was her personal preference. I wouldn’t want to be compelled to always speak with a soft, sweet, airy voice and demure demeanor.

Ms. Huxtable could be referencing the current state of affairs in NYC where every corner on every avenue seems to be a tear down. All the local small business shops are disappearing and they're building these high rise glass monsters that house chain restaurants. I'm a lifer and I remember the city being sarcastically referred to as "Fun City" back in the 60s. Today the term Zombie Apocalypse would be more appropriate.

Um, I think that it's pretty safe to say that you can thank your "houses of ill repute" of Wall Street, which are all located in your Fun City, for not only destroying the place where you live but the entire country through senseless CRAPitalist greed. The best thing that could ever be done is to tear down all of those brokerage houses and the NY stock exchange.

I despair of the closing of all the mom and pop shops, too. Tremendous changes on the UES. But I remember too that many of the moms and pops are retiring after 45-60 years in business. And if the kids, grandkids don’t want to do shoe repair, custom drapes, ladies undergarments (farewell, Lillie’s!!), there’s nothing to be done except close up shop, and/or sell out to the developers…

Ms Huxtable is truly a feminine flower with a microscopic observation of social and environmental idealism, Which granted her a Pulitzer Prize for her unique criticism of architectural development.

This show was broadcast over 53 years ago and nothing as far as affordable housing and building preservation in American cities has changed much at all. Terribly sad.

She had that pinned on pretty securely, I'm sure. But the dress was fairly mod. Must have been late 60's or early 70's, but cute. Cavett certainly approved, but she wasn't going to take the bait!! Smart commentary from all, unlike today's talk show banter.

Just think, NYC mayor Daley was a "hate object" before Trump was the "huge hate object"!

@TTM9691 Жыл бұрын

Wow, your frame of reference is shallow. And there have been plenty of "hate objects" between Daley and Trump (not to mention before Daley) . Trump has been a local joke since the early 90s. (still is!) (we got the two Roosevelts, we don't need Donald the Dummy for any kind of hometown pride; met someone recently who boasted about growing up across the street from his house and we laughed in his face, he turned red as a tomato, lol.)
