Vice and Sleaze

West 14th


"Unlike Times Square, which always seems to me to be apologizing for its present condition, Fourteenth Street realizes that vice and sleaze are just as necessary to a great metropolis as anything else; in fact it is — perhaps unfortunately — generally the amount of those two commodities, among others, that indicate the cultural greatness of a city."
