Mr. Zimmerman showed up in a little corner of New York City fifty years ago last week.

Thanks Ross, I enjoyed seeing those streets again.
The place called Alibi Room on MacDougal was the Scrap Bar in the late 80s, where I spent many a wayward evening after getting off my bookstore job about 11:30, often not returning to Long Island City on the double R until the morning daylight. Youth!
West Village, definitely on my itinerary next time I'm in the city.
