[edit] Mistake re Ansonia & Michael Graves

Article says Graves designed Ansonia, though he was not yet born at the time

This is a different Michael Graves. (Maybe related?) -- Petri Krohn 05:30, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cockroach/Neglect Saga

"In October 2007, two residents of the Ansonia filed a lawsuit against the manager and owner of the Ansonia claiming that a portion of the fourteenth floor was infested with cockroaches."

I talked with this guy who owns some buildings near the Asonia...he said that the inside of the place, it's plumbing and etc., are all run down and old. This cockraoch story is no suprise. But other than that, the exterior of the building is an artistic marvel. Oysters on the Half Shell 16:17, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
