Tudor City Postcard: When We Had Grass (And Wore Hats to Sit On It)

A Glimpse of the Private Parks in Tudor City" Vintage Postcard - When Manhattan Had Actual Grass

Transport yourself (or someone you moderately tolerate) back to a simpler time when Tudor City's private parks were an actual oasis where people wore formal attire to sit on benches and pretend they weren't living in shoebox apartments.

This authentic vintage postcard captures the glory days when Tudor City residents could enjoy "sprawling" green spaces without having to take the subway to Central Park or, God forbid, New Jersey. Notice how everyone in the image is dressed like they're attending a garden party instead of just trying to get five minutes of sunlight between their building and the one next door.

Perfect for:
-Reminding friends that NYC once had grass that wasn't painted on
-Making your relatives think you live somewhere fancy (technically true!)
-Proving that people have been sitting awkwardly in small parks for nearly a century
-Sending passive-aggressive notes to your landlord about the "good old days"
