Subject: query about Alexis Avenue from Alexey
Dear List members and especially the New York residents among you,
Could you tell me, what real avenue, or street, is meant by Ada's "Alexis Avenue" (on which Van has his wing a terre, "between Manhattan's Library and Park")? I have some ideas about possible origins of the avenue's fictional name, but I know little about New York's real streets and avenues.
Thank you,
Alexey
