Moses repeatedly returned to the Hudson riverfront, away from his elegant neighborhood

Evidence

Sometimes, of course, Moses would tell the cab driver to take him straight home. But often he would ask to be dropped off across the West Side, on Riverside Drive, at the end of Seventy-sixth Street near the Hudson River. And as he climbed out of the cab there, he climbed out into a scene far different from the doormanned serenity of Central Park West. — Robert A. Caro, The Power Broker, 275

• QUESTION: Caro sets up a mystery about why Moses returns to Riverside Drive — building narrative tension that presumably pays off in the next pages.
