You might think Cartier is an odd place for a landmarks party, but not really. Not only is Cartier a landmark building (Ralph Destino said, "I thank the New York City Landmarks Commission every day of my life I come to work in this but the company, within the past few years, has thrown some off-beat parties for various causes. For example, to launch its Santos watch, named after an aviator.

Car-tier, in March 1979, took over the 7th Regiment Armory on Park Ave. Overall, Cartier must be doing most things right The firm plans to add two stores in New York one a burgundy-and-mirrored boutique in the Trump Tower scheduled for a May opening, the other to be built on a yet unchosen Madison Ave. site.

We have found new economic life in structures like Radio City Music Hall, the Chrysler Building, the South St Seaport and countless neighborhoods in New York." His own favorite renovation, Bar-wick said, was "a tiny area in the South Bronx called Longwood, an area of devastation where you see great heaps of ruined buildings." Longwood offers the contrast of 185 trim, neatly restored brownstone houses dating from the turn of the century rebuilt with community and outside help. Wagner's legislation. Barwick said "gives every building it's day in court." Upstairs at the Crystal Room podium, other speakers were saying much the same thing.
