'NY Observer' A Little Self-Obsessed?

EXTREME MEDIA NAVEL-GAZING ALERT! DO NOT READ PAST THIS POINT IF YOU DISLIKE SEEING JOURNALISTS WRITING ABOUT JOURNALISTS WRITING ABOUT JOURNALISTS! THIS IS YOUR FINAL WARNING!

Now that that's out of the way...

Today's New York Observer profile of Paris Review editor Philip Gourevitch sets the scene this way:

He was behind his glass-topped desk, in a large, private office in the back of the magazine's newish floor-through space in a Tribeca loft building, approximately four miles from the old home of the magazine in the bottom of [George] Plimpton's townhouse on East 64th Street.

But wait: Plimpton's house was, rather famously, on East 72nd Street. So what small-circulation, highbrow publication, obsessed with the literary past, once made its home in that East 64th Street townhouse?

Oh, yeah.
