The NYC Peeler Man

Via Twitter from Kottke comes something I didn't know about my own frikkin city!

The Gentleman Grafter
By night, Joe Ades dines with his fourth wife at exclusive restaurants, sips Veuve Clicquot at the Pierre, and goes home to a three-bedroom Park Avenue apartment. By day, he is something else altogether. At 72, the “peeler guy” in the Turnbull & Asser shirts is a New York legend.

This guy is soooo good. I just saw him last week! I hadn't seen him in ages and wondered where he'd gone. Turns out he changes his locations a lot.
