We just had so many people through that are just so wild about this auction.

He’s central to a whole cultural pulse.

The Plaza is one of those places where everyone had an emotional moment. People’s parents got engaged there, people got married there or fell in love there.

I have enormous interest on this lot. This may blow you away. I have triple order bids of $10,000 on this lot.

For us, it was really about the story of the Plaza. It is such a New York institution.

We knew it was going to do well. We did not know quite how well it was going to do.

A lot of people clearly wanted a piece of The Plaza.

It really is an opportunity for a piece of The Plaza. It is New York history and world history, really.

The history of The Plaza is so rich but the thing that always stands out as the seminal event there was Truman?s Black and White Ball.
