For an Entire Hour, Gramercy Park Opens to the Masses

For all of one hour on Christmas Eve, Gramercy Park was set to open its gates to average New Yorkers. Or as Gothamist put it in a headline , "Ooh, The Noble Lords Of Gramercy Park Will Let The Rabble In For One Hour This Month!" reserved for New York's most sophisticated aristocrats, will be flung open on Christmas Eve at 6 p.m.," it read, "letting any knuckle-dragging blackguard or slatternly termagant trample all over it for sixty disgraceful minutes."
