...turn them into apartment houses, as a former mayor of Newport, James L. Maher, has done with The Crossways, built in 1898 for peppery Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish. There is certainly plenty of space. In The Waves, for example, built in 1927 by John Russell Pope, a four-bedroom, two-bath apartment has been fitted into what was once the dining room...
...Williamsburg, congregation Yetev Lev, headed by the famed, venerable (about 75) Satmar rabbi, Joel Teitelbaum, will begin building ranch-style and split-level houses on a 500-acre tract in Mount Olive Township. N.J. Besides the houses (average price: $15,000), the congregation plans to build a mikveh (ritual bath), a shopping center, a matzoth bakery, a rabbinical seminary and a synagogue. A number of Hasidic Jews who operate garment factories in lower Manhattan plan to move them to a tract adjacent to their new homes. Ultimately, the move to the suburbs may cost $20 million...

Kennedy accepted a windbreaker and moved with McNamara to the gusty starboard side of the ship to watch an aerial display. Two Terrier missiles homed in on a drone plane, but missed-although naval officers explained that they would have been close enough to the target if they had been armed with real warheads...
...equal, he mirrored the same pretty and fragile world that seemed to have nothing more on its mind than fun and leisure. In favoring mythology, the fashionable Jean François de Troy still kept the mood. His Leda could be any comely marquise languishing in her bath. Everything about the painting-its heavy lushness, its torpor, its sybaritic atmosphere-suggests an overripe society about to go rotten...
