The tenement on East Seventh Street where I live was built in 1893, when a financial crisis in the United States had started to corrode a fabled, materialistic and short-lived time known as the Gilded Age, chronicled most recently in the HBO series of the same name.The building's original owner, Sigmund B. Steinmann who once kidnapped a child violinist, among other crimes represented the era vividly enough to have his own story line on the show.
