Tenement Quotes

An unscrupulous contractor regards no basement as too dark, no stable loft too foul, no rear shanty too provisional, no tenement room too small for his workroom as these conditions implylow rental Picture Quote #1

I inhabit a weak, frail, decayed tenement; battered by the winds and broken in on by the storms, and, from all I can learn, the landlord does not intend to repair Picture Quote #1

Now I don’t know if you realize it, but the film industry’s a small world. It’s like living in a tenement at one end of a back alley. Not only do you see everybody’s dirty laundry, but once rumors start, you can’t stop ‘em Picture Quote #1

I remember my own life as a small boy, son of Jewish immigrants, in a janitor’s flat on Orchard and Stanton streets on the Lower East Side of New York City. My father made pants and doubled as janitor of a tenement - before he made janitoring at $30 a month, plus rooms, a career Picture Quote #1
