Accessed October 2, 2019. "If walls could speak, the brick at New York's Chelsea Market would have more than a few stories to tell. Alphabet (the parent company of Google) purchased the building in March of 2018 for $2.4 billion—an earth-shattering figure even in New York City's real estate market—but this isn't a glittering, 21st-century beacon, a symbol of the ingenuity of Silicon Valley. In reality, the looming brick structure remains largely the same as it did more than a century ago, when it served as headquarters for the iconic snack company Nabisco."</ref> [[Peter McManus Cafe]], a bar and restaurant on Seventh Avenue at 19th Street, is among the oldest family-owned and -operated bars in the city. The [[Empire Diner]] was an [[art moderne]] diner at 210 Tenth Avenue at 22nd Street that appeared in several movies and was mentioned in [[Billy Joel]]'s song "Great Wall of China". Designed by [[Fodero Dining Car Company]], it was built in 1946 and was altered in 1979 by Carl Laanes. The diner closed on May 15, 2010; reopened briefly as "The Highliner", and again re-opened under its original name in January 2014<ref>Preston, Marguerite.
