Has anyone ever seen the Longacre Building

on 46th st, between 6th and 7th in Manhattan?

It's not a skyscraper, but it is still worth several million dollars, I'm sure.

I wonder why Longacre says he is working for the man, when he is raking in the dough in Manhattan.

    That's another one, much larger and probably much more lucrative than the other one. I guess that he has a real estate empire in Manhattan.

  • Of course this one has been torn down; I wonder what Mr. Longacre is contemplating rebuilding?

    This is much, much bigger than I had anticipated.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    The Longacre brand is quite amazing. Pretty soon there will be Longacre-branded draperies and a home furnishings collection. image

    Another prominent ex-New Yorker did very well with "power" neck ties; even I have a few. Could be very lucrative.
