Excerpt from The Spendthrift In Washington Square, New York's extremes meet. The most exclusively aristocratic portion of Fifth Avenue - where the newly-prosperous are quite unknown - debouches into it, and its North side is bordered by the residences of the rich, and, curiously enough, distinguished.
