Congratulations to Chief Judge Preska and to Thomas Kavaler on their stunning new residence. It’s the perfect venue for hosting a party for S.D.N.Y. interns, Cahill Gordon summer associates, or fellow judges and lawyers. And if you’d like to invite a certain judge- and real-estate-obsessed legal blogger, Your Honor, you know where to reach me. 😉
