In her 26 years in New York, Wednesday Martin has lived in nearly every neighborhood, from Long Island City to Soho to the West Village. Nothing, she says, prepared her for the Upper East Side. “It’s the most fascinating and alienating and completely separate world I’ve ever encountered,” Martin says. “This is a separate tribe…
