citylikeyou — Boat — New York by Michael Szivos

New York / Bar

This is my local spot and one of my bad habits. The bartenders make sure I don’t do anything to embarrassing and its full of regulars. Has dangerously replaced my living room. It’s one of the only real dive bars on Smith street. Layers of funkiness help keep away the frat boys and bachelorette parties. Never closes before 4am so all the other neighborhood bartenders, cooks, and waiters stop by after work. Needless to say that only the best business decisions get made here!

If only places can speak...yet they have their own language with their texture, smell, vibe, mood...new york is waking up

New York / Cafe

“We wanted to create a place where people felt at home, somewhere that people came back to often and the quality of the food shone.” – Rose Carrarini. Rose Bakery was created by Rose Carrarini and her husband Jean Charles. Great place to sit and chat with a friend, definitely try their scone with butter + jam and stroll around Dover Street Market afterwards.

New York / Theatre

The Theatre for a New Audience is a non-profit theater in New York City focused on producing Shakespeare and other classic dramas. Its off-Broadway productions have toured in the U.S. and internationally.

New York / Park

Just by sitting on a bench and drinking a coffee in the park, I can be entertained by so many performers and some crazy people.

New York / Beach

Its quite a trip out there but so very worth it if you wanna have the very special beach-experience! You can go there by car and then take the ferry either to Pines or Cherry Grove (I would prefer Pines!) or you do all by public transportation - there a "getaway tickes" for 36Dollars and the transfer works really smooth - may even be faster than by car!
