West 88th Street

This is a pen-and-ink drawing of the brownstone where my parents lived when I was born. I did it as a Christmas present for my mom. That's 4-year old me with our dog, Clyde, and our black cat Panther Puss in the apartment window. This building is in the Upper West Side, less than a block from Central Park. Hard to believe that in the early '70s, this was not a desirable location!
