Comedian, photographer, and lifelong New Yorker Jenny Rubin grew up in the West Village in the 70s and 80s—and might soon be moving to a slower-paced locale.

Brooklyn Heights Retirement Brownstone; the aughts vs. the two-thousands; long walks and photography as therapy; Horatio Street and Sally Field; cheerfully morbid Barry Rubin; low rents on the LES in the 90s; Murphy the dog; the struggle to stay in NYC or to know when it's time to leave; Robin Byrd; working at Wetlands in the 90s; smoking everywhere in the 90s; immortalized by Sylvia Plachy; rehoming dogs; Dodge hates vision boards; almost five years as nonsmokers.
