Caulfield's Apartment Caulfield's Neighborhood zoo postcard of east central park
This is a postcard photo of Central Park East. I added the texts. (You can also see the plain photo.)

The Caulfields lived in a tall building on 71st and Fifth, which would be right behind the tall white building in view here. It is just west of a swanky area. Holden looked for Phoebe by the band shell, which is directly west of 71st street. They went to the zoo at the end of the book.
