Jeremiah's Vanishing New York

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jeremiah's Vanishing New York is a blog reviewing historically significant locations in New York City that are likely to not exist in the near future.

Blogger Jeremiah Moss publishes the reviews.[1]

The website was established in 2008[1] after a failed attempt to save Café Edison, a Times Square coffeehouse well liked by locals as community meeting place. In response, Moss began a "Save NYC" campaign to increase awareness of the harms of gentrification.[2]

One reviewer described the blog as describing "old-school businesses in danger of being snuffed out by changing times".[3]

In 2017 Moss released a comprehensive book entitled Vanishing New York: How a Great City Lost Its Soul.[4]
