Home from Home

Some day Franklin Roosevelt may be looking for a new job. He may even go back to law practice, may work again in the firm of Roosevelt & O'Connor. Always foresighted, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Roosevelt hunted a New York City apartment.

Last week she found one, in a 15-story apartment building facing Washington Square: seven rooms, three baths, a fireplace, built-in bookcases. In the rear of the building is a little Spanish courtyard with scenes from the career of Don Quixote traced in its tilework. The address: 29 Washington Square West.

The old Roosevelt town houses on East 65th Street are for sale, and Franklin Roosevelt is no lover of hotels. Homey, elbow-roomy Hyde Park remains his legal residence. Mrs. Roosevelt rented the Washington Square apartment for "a term of years." In My Day, she philosophized: "I feel I have now reached an age where I can reasonably expect to stay wherever I go for the rest of my life."
