Like Barbapapa’s house with a beautiful garden.

I've seen so many great classic movies on film here. Being able to have that experience is one of the things that I feel lucky living in this city.

The Sill is one of our favorite places to shop for plants in all of New York City, offering amazing customer service and a busy calendar of events in their tiny shop on Hester Street to help you learn exactly how to keep that fiddle leaf fig or pothos alive.

Daytime café, nighttime bar. Nothing stronger than 30-proof. Delicious beer and really good wine. Kind people run & staff the place. The garden in the Summer is perfect. I make near-daily visits.

I like coming down here with friends when the weather permits and drinking on the beach or on the rocks when the tides come in.
