The Sign of the Dove was a fine dining restaurant on the Upper East Side of Manhattan which opened in 1962 by dentist Jason Santo, which he designed himself.The Santo Family Group sold the 65th Street and 3rd Avenue Property to Related Properties Ltd. who had plans for a mixed use highrise development. Since its closure, it has been considered "one of the lost gems of New York City".Jessica Mitford wrote a less than flattering story about Sign of the Dove in 1977 for New York (magazine). Letters were sent saying Mitford was drunk and disorderly and it turns out the letters were written by someone doing PR work for Santo, and wrote about someone else without getting their permission and said it was her.
