Hi,
If you're visiting New York, do not miss the Frick
Collection on Fifth Avenue at 70th Street. An absolute
must.
The Museum of the City of New York does the city
proud, past, present and occasionally future, at Fifth
Avenue at 103rd Street.
The Hall of Minerals at the American Museum of Natural
History makes a lasting effect, thanks to
once-upon-a-time efforts of Tiffany's. Central Park
West at 79th.
When the town gets to be too much for you, be sure to
see the Abigail Adams Smith House, a contextual
mindbender unknown to most Manhattanites. This 2-story
1799 carriage house at 421 East 61st Street is
completely surrounded by today's towers of glass and
steel.
For food, I'll just give you one - Grange Hall, superb
Amurrican food at 50 Commerce Street, corner of
Barrow, and a lovely neighborhood for a stroll. This
West Village intersection is right by the courtyard
where O. Henry's "The Last Leaf" was set, and around
the corner from Manhattan's narrowest house, 9 feet
wide, the former domicile of Edna St. Vincent Millay.
And if you want to go to Europe for an afternoon, The
Cloisters always has some wonderful holiday season
events!
Cheers,
Dick Rodstein
