The narrowest building in New York City sold last week for an impressive $2.1 million dollars which is still $600,000 less than the asking price.  The 3-story house was built in 1873 in a former carriageway and, over the years, has served as the residence of John Barrymore, Cary Grant, anthropologist Margaret Mead, and the poet Edna St. Vincent Millay.  Though it is a mere 9 1/2 feet from wall to wall, the building should provide ample width for it's new owner, Rush Limbaugh's world view, who defended the purchase by saying "It's still 3 feet wider than the refrigerator box that Nicolas Cage has his eye on".
