Well, I married the apartment,” John Githens says of his home of over five decades in a 19th-century townhouse overlooking Washington Square Park.
Githens is a scholar and translator who also taught at St. John’s University; he has worked for UNICEF as well.

His head was full of minute details of so many stories of their life together.
