Thank you for this. I've always imagined as if Bartok lived in some miserable crib in the outskirts. I've just realized that his apartment was actually placed at a very elite location, just a few minutes walk from both the MET and Carnegie Hall, as well as from Central Park. A lot of people today would be very happy with getting to live there... nevertheless, Bartok was very unhappy - not with the location, but with the almost certain consciousness of probably never being able to return to his beloved homeland.... so unhappy that it took his health and - eventually - his life.
Do we know which apartment the great man lived in? It would be nice to traverse/film his way home, beyond the entrance inner doors. ~ The "Sense of the Man." Turandot4

Thank you for this. I saw this plaque a few years ago and today was trying to remember which street Bartok had lived on in NY. You helped me remember.
