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, […]
This Weekend: New Taste of the Upper West Side – May 18th & 19th
Yes, NYC food events are getting to be almost dime a dozen these days: from the Big Apple Barbecue Block Party (this June, in Madison Square Park), to the summer-long Smorgasburg in Williamsburg, to the Stone Street Oyster Festival every fall, to the first-ever, oddly-named Great GoogaMooga in Prospect Park (this weekend!), to on and […]
A Glenwood Building in Tribeca is Living Green
They call it a “DVR for electricity”, and it could revolutionize the way entire city blocks–heck, entire cities–think about energy consumption. This building is saving money and cutting usage with Demand Energy’s brand-new battery storage technology, the Demand Shifter: Glenwood’s Manhattan apartment building, the Barclay Tower in Tribeca (on the right, above).

Whitney Museum NYC ‘Biennial’ Returns to Upper East Side
It's the exhibition that everyone loves to complain about, the Whitney Biennial, that every-other-year contemporary show that takes over most of the Whitney Museum of American Art for most of the spring, and purports to take the pulse of what's going on in art right now. We grouse about the selection, and its emphasis on money […]
Paula Scher’s MAPS Chelsea Exhibition at Bryce Wolkowitz Gallery
Sometimes it feels almost unfair, the amount of enviable things Paula Scher has accomplished in her career. She spent most of the 1970s as an art director at CBS and Atlantic Records, designing some 150 album covers a year, including that iconic, monster-hit debut Boston LP, with its trippy flying saucers. The 1980s were spent […]
Planting Tulip Bulbs & Planting Daffodil Bulbs: Glenwood Gardeners Plant 150,000 Tulips & Daffodils
Don Venezia, Supervisor for the Landscape Division at Glenwood management, is a very busy man these days. That’s because Don and his crack crew of seven landscapers and gardeners have been spending much of the last few weeks (and will continue on through November) planting some 150,000 tulip bulbs and daffodil bulbs in Glenwood gardens […]
Forcella: Fried Pizza Comes to the Bowery at This New York Pizza Restaurant
Early last summer the Neapolitan pizzaiolo Giulio Adriani opened Forcella in Williamsburg, attracting crowds right from the start for his fried pizza, and then keeping the place packed with everything else on his lengthy, extremely inviting pizza menu. Now, just a few months later, Adriani has jumped the river with a brand new, much larger […]
Liberty Plaza: Leading the way in Downtown Manhattan After September 11
In 2005, just a few years after we all had predicted that the horrific attacks of 9/11 would change New York City forever–and, more specifically, the neighborhoods of downtown Manhattan–those changes did indeed start to happen… but in ways that were much better than most of us could have dared hope. You see, 2005 was […]
