The East 78th Street Houses are a row of five attached brick houses on that street in Manhattan, New York, United States. They are the remainder of an original group of 11 built in 1861, when the area was originally being developed due to the extension of rail transit into it.As a result, they are among the oldest townhouses on the Upper East Side. Some of them have been added onto, and the two easternmost were combined into a single unit. They retain enough historical integrity that they were designated a New York City Landmark in 1968, and were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.BuildingsThe row is located at 157–165 East 78th, on the north side of the street between Third and Lexington avenues. It is closer to the Lexington intersection at the west end of the block. The neighborhood is residential, consisting of similar, often larger, rowhouses and apartment buildings. It is just outside the Upper East Side Historic District, and on the southern edge of Yorkville.They are on lots 18ft wide by 102ft deep, although the buildings themselves only cover the front 40ft. They are two stories high, with exposed basements giving them the appearance of three and a main entrance below street level. The westernmost house, 157, has had a slate-shingled mansard roof with three gabled dormer windows added. At the east end, 163 and 165 have been combined into one house, with a penthouse on the roof.

A multidisciplinary group dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment and support of patients and families with Moyamoya disease. Members of the team include a vascular neurologist, pediatric neurologist, neurosurgeon, endovascular specialists, neuroradiologist and nurse practitioners and physician assistants. Our core treatment team: Dr. David Langer, MD Vascular Neurosurgeon Dr. Rafael Ortiz, Neuroendovascular Radiology Dr. Jeffrey M. Katz, MD Interventional and Vascular Neurologist Dr. Robert Gould, MD Pediatric Neurologist Dr. Karen Black, MD Neuroradiologist Andrea Adams, Nurse Practitioner Karissa Tan, Nurse Practitioner Nicole Garcia Admin Assist Tricia Chase Admin Assist Contact: Drs Jeffrey Katz and David Langer 516-562-3064 or 516-562-3023 Moyamoya disease is an occlusive vasculopathy affecting the internal carotid artery in the brain and its immediate large branches resulting in progressive blood vessel narrowing, occlusion and stroke. As a response to the slowly progressive decrease in cerebral blood flow, a network of dilated friable blood vessels at the base of the brain develop to feed the starved cerebral tissue. On cerebral angiography, the gold standard diagnostic test for this condition, these vessels resemble a "puff of smoke" and the name "moyamoya" is the Japanese word for this "puff of smoke" appearance. Moyamoya disease was first described in the Japanese population, however, it is now being recognized more frequently and is seen in all racial and ethnic groups across the globe. The condition can present at any age, but is typically diagnosed in children in the first decade of life or in adults (more commonly women) in their 30's. Children characteristically present with transient episodes of unilateral weakness, sometimes alternating sides between episodes. These symptoms are caused by transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) or small ischemic strokes. Adults tend to present with ischemic (lack of blood flow) strokes or brain bleeds related to rupture of the friable moyamoya vessels or brain surface collaterals that are under high demand for blood flow. Diagnosis is made using MRI and diagnostic cerebral angiography along with tests to assess cerebral blood flow including MRA NOVA and Brain SPECT imaging. The appearance of Moyamoya disease on imaging may be seen in association with other medical conditions. When the changes in the brain blood vessels are associated with another underlying medical problem, the condition is termed Moyamoya Syndrome. Medical conditions associated with Moyamoya Syndrome include sickle cell anemia, hyperthyroidism, Neurofibromatosis Type I, Down Syndrome, certain congenital heart defects, previous brain radiation therapy, and giant craniofacial hemangiomas. Treatment is directed to those patients that are symptomatic with either TIA, stroke or bleeding. There is no medical therapy for the disease, although aspirin is often recommended because it is helpful for stroke prevention. Treatment for symptomatic patients involves surgically restoring blood flow to the deprived brain through either direct bypass or indirect revascularization. During a direct bypass, a blood vessel from the scalp (superficial temporal artery) is surgically attached to a brain blood vessel (middle cerebral artery) through a small skull defect. This bypass immediately provides additional blood to the starved brain and is the technique of choice in adults if the patient's particular anatomy allows it. The indirect revascularization, or EDAS (stands for encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis) involves suturing a scalp blood vessel directly to the brain substance rather than to another blood vessel. The covering of the brain, called dura, may also be used during this operation to enhance the effectiveness of this technique. The restoration of blood flow following an EDAS procedure may take weeks to months, but ultimately provides sufficient blood flow as it matures to prevent future strokes. The EDAS technique is favored for children and is also useful for adults with the disease.

P.S. 6, The Lillie Devereaux Blake School, is a public elementary school located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York City. Founded in 1894, P.S. 6 is regarded as one of the top elementary schools in New York City.OverviewP.S. 6 has about 800 students in grades K-5. Average class sizes are 23-28. The school's student body is 78% Caucasian, which is somewhat unusual for a public school in NYC. The school is popular with families on the Upper East Side who often choose to send their children there rather than to private school. The school's former Principal, Carmen Fariña, claimed that the acceptance rate for out of district students was 1/7, lower than that of many top-tier Universities.HistoryP.S. 6 was founded in 1894 and named after the feminist author and reformer Lillie Devereaux Blake. The school was originally located several blocks to the north on 85th Street. The current red brick building on Madison Avenue between 81st and 82nd Streets was constructed in 1953.The school's first principal Katherine Blake, the daughter of the school's namesake, served in that capacity for 34 years and demanded that the pacifist hymn "I did not raise my son to be a soldier" be sung at every assembly.AcademicsP.S. 6 is a Teacher's College "Mentor School." It offers a particularly strong writing program based on the principles of Lucy Calkins. Students are expected to write plays, poetry, essays and short fiction by the time they graduate. The school also places a special emphasis on Art education. Its location, two blocks from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, allows the students particularly good access to view the works of famous artists. P.S. 6 was also the recipient of a grant from the Annenberg Foundation to help fund art projects in the school.
