In its heyday in the 1930s and '40s, the Taft was the biggest hotel in midtown Manhattan. The author grew up in this New York landmark, where his father, the general manager, ruled over a staff of Damon Runyonesque characters. Here, he contrasts his luxurious life inside the hotel with the gritty carnival spirit of his Times Square neighbourhood.
