NYT Does A Little Spring Cleaning

NYT Does A Little Spring Cleaning

So it's moving day for The New York Times' newsroom. After 94 years at the 229 W. 43rd Street headquarters, not far from its former home right in Times Square, the "grey lady" or "paper of record" or "liberal, left-wing rag" (if you're Ann Coulter) is pulling up stakes and heading west. Well, a block or so west, to the new Times Tower, a 52-floor glass hulk promising all the comforts of a multi-media center.

This leads to the inevitable packing up of, in some cases, decades of notebooks, files, newspapers, and likely a few souvenir pennants, Playbills and, perhaps, a leftover Scotch bottle or two. Anyone who has spent extended time in a newsroom has likely gone through the nostalgic chore of putting years of journalistic findings and experiences into boxes for a transfer to newer digs.
