On October 17, 2024, Rob Garber, a Bloomingdale neighborhood historian, and Joan Adler, SHS's Executive Director, did a Zoom presentation about the Isidor and Ida Straus home on West 105th Street between Broadway and West End Avenue in New York City, the history of the neighborhood surrounding it, and the history of the Straus family. Rob Garber has been conducting research about his neighborhood for many years and has become fascinated with the history of the Straus house. SHS published his excellent article, "The Manhattan Residences of Isidor and Ida Straus," in a supplemental newsletter in November 2023.
