DUMBO Restaurants like Governor Give a Reason to Head to Brooklyn
As usual, we tried out a lot of new restaurants all over town this past summer, and, as it turns out, possibly our best meal of the season (real summer, not calendar summer) came on practically the last day of the season, on a cobblestoned street in Brooklyn, at DUMBO’s Governor, which was opened in […]
The Quay Brothers Bring Creep to the Museum of Modern Art in NYC
Need another good reason to go to Museum of Modern Art in Midtown NYC this fall? Look deep into the dark and disturbing heart of the Quay Brothers, whose work as avant garde stop-action animators, collagists and puppeteers has been given a fantastic–and fantastically creepy–career-spanning retrospective on the Museum of Modern Art's second floor, first […]
Fashion’s Night Out NYC 2012: A Chic Guide to September 6
First off–before getting into Fashion's Night Out 2012–you should know that, personally, we're not terribly fashionable, nor do we do a lot of shopping, nor know the difference between this designer bag and that designer shoe. There's nothing wrong with any of the above, it's just generally not a part of our lives. And yet, […]
Tatzu Nishi Brings Public Art to Columbus Circle in NYC
How many times have you been to (or, more likely, speedily passed through) Columbus Circle in NYC without even for a second looking up at the 13-foot-tall statue of the explorer that gives the place its name. Hundreds? Thousands? Well, Japanese artist Tatzu Nishi is about to change all that with his slightly bonkers but […]
West Village Restaurant Swine NYC is Super-Meaty
Swine NYC, a West Village restaurant which opened about a month ago on Hudson Street, seems like it has all the elements in place to be packing 'em in for a meaty, boozy party this fall. It's run by West Village local John McNulty, who's done time at such first-rate spots as Jeffrey's and Cafe […]
Whole Foods NYC Opens its Midtown East Location on 57th Street
Residents of Glenwood's luxury rental apartment buildings, The Bristol and The Bamford: your life just got a whole lot easier. At least, the food-shopping part of your life. That's because Whole Foods Market in NYC has their newest location on 57th Street between Third and Second Avenues, in the also new 1.5-acre mixed-use "campus" that will soon be […]
Sugar and Plumm in the Upper West Side Brings the Savory & the Sweet
Sugar and Plumm first made itself known to its Upper West Side soon-to-be neighbors late last year when construction began on the 2,300-square-foot space, and a stretch of lavender-ish painted plywood stretched up nearly half the block. Not a little local outrage soon followed, with folks complaining about everything from the mall-ification of Amsterdam Avenue […]
Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller: Murder of Crows, Park Avenue Armory
Here are the physical items that make up Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller's Murder of Crows, an extraordinary audio installation now on "view" at the cavernous Park Avenue Armory: 98 speakers, 21 amplifiers, miscellaneous media, electronics, 1 computer, 1 desk, 1 horn speaker, 55 chairs. Seems kind of spare, right? Especially for that gigantic […]
Maison Kayser NYC: Eric Kayser’s Bakery on the Upper East Side
Maison Kayser NYC, the first American outpost of Parisian master baker Eric Kayser’s international empire of fanatically-adored boulangeries/patisseries/cafes (there are more than 80 all told, mostly in Paris, but also Tokyo, Moscow, Beruit, Athens, etc.), opened about a week ago on the Upper East Side, blocks away from a number of Glenwood’s Manhattan Upper East […]
Century of the Child: Growing By Design, 1900 – 2000 at the MoMA
It's not news that, over the course of the 20th Century, the whole concept of "childhood" went from being virtually non-existent to becoming culturally all-consuming. Kids began the 1900s treated as tiny adults–working long hours, no special rights or privileges–and a hundred years later they're hovered over, even worshiped, by parents in particular, and by […]
