“When I pulled up, a sign at the front said “not accepting donations”. A path was made available to the entrance of the building, as the snow storm had just passed. Inside the building looked clean. Two persons were present, a young man and an older lady, both were pleasant. I asked if I could drop some items off to be donated, which I was allowed. I asked if the clothing would be donated to people in need, to which I was informed, it would be sold in the discount store and the remaining un-sell-ables, will be shipped overseas. I did see people lined-up outside in an orderly fashion, receiving food items. The only concern was diversity, the people who were in line were that of Hispanic decent, (maybe because the location). When does clothing gets donated to people in need? I was provided with a receipt that listed the # of bags and the list of items donated.”

“A great place to stroll after lunch or dinner! There are new art installations and great views. Of course many great photo ops as well. Because it's right next to the river you want to layer up, because it can get cold and windy. Summer nights are prefect on the High Line.”

“I discovered Printed Matter one day while walking around Chelsea visiting various art spaces. In this context, maintaining the operation at this location is absolutely a smart, brilliant idea as it attracts art nerds who also happen to be book connoisseurs. For me, the curation and selection are unique enough to place Printed Matter in its own category. Think of extremely limited press runs combined with high quality presentation and intriguing subject matter. No NYC bookstore tour would be complete without a stop at Printed Matter.”

“I recently visited the children's museum of Brooklyn with my daughter, and I must say it was a fantastic experience. The museum offers a wide range of activities and exhibits that are both educational and entertaining for children.One of the highlights of our visit was the traditional Brooklyn mock shops. My daughter absolutely loved playing in these mini shops, pretending to be a shopkeeper or a customer. It was a great way for her to learn about different types of shops and how they function.The museum also had interactive exhibits that allowed children to explore various scientific concepts through hands-on activities. My daughter had a blast experimenting with different materials and learning about cause and effect.The staff at the museum were friendly and helpful, and they made sure that the children had a safe and enjoyable experience. The museum was clean and well-maintained, and there were plenty of seating areas for parents to relax while their children played.Overall, I highly recommend the children's museum of Brooklyn. It provides a fun and educational environment for children to learn and play. My daughter had a great time, and we will definitely be visiting again in the future.”

“Amazing hub for out of town runners like me who want to run in Central Park. Lockers, water fountain, changing rooms, and bathroom all kept clean by hardworking cleaning staff. The employees I’ve interacted with are all helpful and friendly. Be aware there are no showers, but I always bring disposable XL “shower” wipes.”

“I am visiting NYC and staying on the upper east side. My friend was on a work call so I ventured out for a walk on this beautiful day. I walked down 87st and it led me here. I knew I was headed towards something great as I saw so many dogs walking in the same direction. The park was on the water and was such a refreshing scene from the city streets I just walked down. There were tons of people playing pickle ball. People chilling on park benches and just an overall good vibe. I didn't get pics of any dogs because I was petting them. :)”

“Looking forward to checking out this shop soon. I grew up in San Francisco, the OG 826. Some of these negative comments are clearly from people who didn't bother to look up the website or read any of the reviews. The store front is meant to be gimmicky, targeting younger school age children. Though some adults may enjoy it too, depending on your personality. The proceeds support the 826 nonprofit which provides tutoring and literacy programs for children. There are locations throughout the country and each adjoining storefront features a different theme. NYC is superheroes. San Francisco is pirates. Don't know what the other stores are. I visited the one in LA but can't remember its theme anyway, if you're treating this as a normal retail space and expecting dirt cheap prices, you're missing the whole point. Cheers! Be kind to everyone.”

“National Sawdust is a visual treat. The concert I most recently attended was set up in their extremely intimate cabaret set up, but I have done standing room shows in the venue too. It’s always comfortable, and there is no bad view in the house. The acoustics and speaker design are also perfect, ensuring you hear everything with precision. This is, hands down, one of the best venues in NYC and the world!”

“We had several large furniture pieces we wanted to donate to ReStore. When we sent photos the staff replied very quickly and accepted all the items.Lucas and Gus arrived on time on the day we scheduled and not only took all the items listed, but other things we forgot to list. They were very professional and helpful.We highly recommend ReStore and their professionals. So much so, that we have contacted them again so we can donate more items to help support the work of ReStore and Habitat for Humanity!”
