What’s the meaning of voot? When are you coming to New York? The new job at the museum is steady, mostly sweetening up the top cats for cash. I’ve got an apartment in the Lower East Seventies now, very voot. Kerouac was spotted in the neighborhood, and Artie Shaw plays in a joint on the corner. But forget about bebop, keep your eye out now for a potent lad named Frankie Laine. Tell him Tom-cat sent you. What’s the meaning of ‘voot’ in the letter? Thanks!

I've never heard it before, but I found a list of jazz-age slang that suggests voot means money, so maybe it means it's an expensive apartment. http://home.earthlink.net/~dlarkins/slang-pg.htm#V

No idea. Maybe it's some street slang of the day. We could only guess at its meaning from the context.
