Broadway, as locals all know, is much more than just the few blinding blocks of Times Square. On the Upper West Side, it is the heart of commerce and transportation, the historic Boulevard and Bloomingdale Road. In his latest book, architect Fran Leadon takes us along our own UWS blocks of this famous route, providing snapshots of life as it once was, and sometimes still is.
