Manhattan Living
Artist Liu Bolin the Invisible Man at Eli Klein Fine Art
For several years now, Chinese artist Liu Bolin's disappearing act has happened in plain sight. Initially a reaction to the Chinese government shutting down his studio ("they want me to be invisible, I'll be invisible") as well as other, state-sanctioned repressive actions directed at his colleagues, artist Liu Bolin's extraordinary works of public camouflage have […]
Where Can I Buy Girl Scout Cookies in NYC? Girl Scout Cookies “Stores” in Manhattan
What is your favorite flavor of Girl Scout cookies? Samoas, right? Ok, that was too easy…. I mean, aside from the odd Thin Mints afficionado, or the even odder Do-si-do peanut-butter freak, Samoas clearly rule the Girl Scout Cookie universe, which is where we all live this time of year IF we're lucky enough to […]
Now at the Guggenheim Museum NYC: John Chamberlain: Choices
As more than one writer has already noted, at first glance the John Chamberlain retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum looks as if they staged some sort of disastrous funny-car rally down the Guggenheim's signature spiral ramp, the wreckage in each gallery perhaps awaiting a tow.

JBird Cocktails on Upper East Side Named Best Uptown Bar
Upper Manhattanites: your Upper East Side neighborhood cocktail bar just got a HUGE upgrade. At the end of January, JBird Cocktails relocated up here from a “secret” spot in Midtown, bringing serious cocktail culture to a seemingly random stretch of 75th Street. Why did the Upper East Side get so lucky? The motivation, turns out, is partially […]
A Delicious Bakery in Soho: Dominique Ansel Bakery
No matter which Glenwood building you live in–whether Upper East or Upper West; Midtown or Downtown–it's extremely likely that you'll find yourself shopping or otherwise amusing yourself in Soho from time to time. While you're there, you might as well get a coffee and a treat, right? Consider, then, Soho's Dominique Ansel Bakery, opened last […]
Photography Exhibtion in Midtown Manhattan: Cindy Sherman at the MoMA
For Glenwood Residents living in our Midtown Manhattan apartments, this photography exhibition is must see. Actually, it is must see for everyone, especially after you've finished taking in all the art of New York Art Fair Weekend. The huge, career-spanning Cindy Sherman retrospective that just opened at the Museum of Modern Art was certainly one of the […]
New York Art Fair Weekend 2012: Where to Go & What to See
Contemporary art enthusiasts, prepare to be completely overwhelmed.
