This is my favorite bar in the city: original cocktails, an unpretentious crowd and live jazz.

Broadway during the day is usually a bit busy with foot traffic. I prefer enjoying it's wide sidewalks at night when it's a lot quieter.

Secondhand works of fiction, film & philosophy sold in a shop with gatherings & special events.

A gorgeous place to wander and explore, especially during cherry blossom season when the colonnade of soft pink cherry trees are in full bloom on the esplanade. I’m also a big fan of the tropical and desert gardens.

Lunch there before a visit at the MET with a walk in Central Park
