In this letter, Douglas Dunn shares memories of moving to and around SoHo, from apartment to loft to larger loft. His story captures SoHo's evolving real estate landscape at the time, and also reads as a who's who in modern dance. A fascinating story with beautiful photographs!

Peggy Spina has been dancing, teaching, and performing for almost 40 years and has been headquartered at The Spina Loft on Prince Street for almost as long. Peggy’s loft is old school. You reach it via a rickety wooden staircase, and she still has a police lock on her door.  She also has those circular radiators that wrap around her support columns. You don’t ever see that anymore.
