TOD - Why don't we just buy a building on Central Park West and turn it into an HHW residence? I'd also like to have a place on a large body of water - ocean, one of the Great Lakes, etc.
Actually, if money had not been an object, I might never have left Ann Arbor 32 years ago. The vibrancy of a large university community still calls to me, but the climate detracts from its appeal as a retirement destination. Of course, had I not left Ann Arbor, I would not have met DH Richard or DR elmore (and therefore all you folks here at HHW).
