'New York Times' To Throw Two Parties For Its New Building

The New York Times will celebrate its new headquarters twice—first this Thursday for employees, with "complimentary coffee and tea all day," and then, you know, a party for the actual fancy people next Monday. That's the party during which the building will "limit access" to staffers, it sounds like, which should make that whole "coming to work to get your job done" thing mildly irritating. Or fun! For reporters, sorta like wending your way out of the Green Zone, except with cocktails and Gail Collins and Gay Talese instead of IEDs and "insurgents."
