Well back then the NYT along with Village Voice were the major sources for finding apartments in Manhattan if not other parts of the City.
Remember people used to down to the VV's offices in Greenwich Village late Tuesday night to get a jump on the new issue that hit the newsstands on Wednesday. Similarly you got the Sunday NYT on Saturday night to get a jump on apartment hunting.
