1945 Press Photo New York Jori Livingston converted loft to apt Grand CentralNYC

Here's a gal from Missouri who solved her housing problem with a bit of ingenuity and a lot of fast talking. She's a singer from St Louis who talked a landlord into letting her rent and convert an empty loft in the Grand Central area into a cozy apartment. Jori relaxes on the couch in her converted studio-apartment where she's free from the squawks of neighbors objecting to midnight vocalizing. Photo measures 9 x 7.25 inches. Photo is dated 12-06-1945.
