citylikeyou — Astor Place — New York by Aaron Graubart

Great barber shop. Been there for years. Used to be upstairs, moved downstairs. A New York City staple. Need a haircut? Go here… Oh yeah, and they have karaoke. Enough said.

New York / Restaurant

I’m crazy for pork buns and ramen. The wait is always long at Ippudo but I never regret it.

New York / Shop

Intimate east village record shop with an excellently curated selection of second hand and new vinyl.

New York / Bridge

Always in the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge, is the most direct route for a bike ride into the city from my place. This is a kind of alcove and lookout point that also reminds me I’m about to reach the top of the climb. I guess I kind of like the series of light bulbs and ornate rivets and metal work, the kinds things you really don’t see from a distance.

New York / Architecture

Empty, but not abandoned, this cavernous Brooklyn loading dock was once considered the largest individual building in the world.

New York / Cafe

This is a very delicious Sandwich place in my neighborhood. I normally order the #5 - Bell' americano. It's a great sandwich. Also try the wonderful cookies.
