I grew up in a mostly white suburb in New Jersey, and I wasn't interested in learning how to play mahjong when I was a kid. The small white tiles stamped with intricate flowers, swirling circles, and sharp Chinese characters felt foreign to me. Instead, I observed from the outside; I watched family friends play the game around the kitchen table, chatting into the late hours of the night. The sound of shuffling tiles was a familiar lullaby, my mind drifting off to the hypnotic clicking and clacking.

Plain and simple, he was targeting the heart of our Jewish community, Tisch said.

To completely transform modern New York City back to the 1880s, the crew laid down massive textured carpets over the asphalt to perfectly mimic historic stone streets. There are over 350 background actors fully dressed in period-accurate costumes, alongside dozens of real horse-drawn carriages filling the block.

When New York City first permitted restaurants to set up outdoor dining six springs ago, it was a godsend to businesses devastated by COVID-19 pandemic-related capacity restrictions that had kept patrons away and put these establishments on the brink of total failure. The de Blasio Administration moved quickly to cut through the red tape and throw this lifeline to so many struggling restaurants. It was haphazard and messy at times, but it worked. Outdoor dining amid the pandemic allowed many restaurants to make it through the economic storm and thrive on the other side of it.

Dylan was born Robert Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota, in 1941. He and his family lived on the upper floor of a duplex at 519 North 3rd Avenue East. "It's on the banks of Lake Superior, built on granite rock. Lot of fog horns, sailors, loggers, storms, blizzards," the musician reflected on his hometown in 2017. "My mom says there were food shortages, food rationing, hardly any gas, electricity cutting off-everything metal in your house you gave to the war effort. It was a dark place, even in the light of day-curfews, gloomy, lonely, all that sort of stuff-we lived there till I was about five, till the end of the war."

On June 30 at 11am, diner owner and former Miss Subways winner Ellen Hart will host 11 fellow titleholders for a reunion timed to both her 85th birthday and the kickoff to America's 250th anniversary celebrations. The event promises a rare gathering of women whose faces once appeared within subways between 1941 and 1976.

The Great Nosh, the wildly popular Jewish food festival that sold out during its debut last year, is officially returning to Governors Island on Sunday, June 21. Presented by the Jewish Food Society, the one-day outdoor festival turns Governors Island into a giant picnic celebrating Jewish food culture across New York City, with chef collaborations, live music, arts programming and enough carbs to require a nap immediately afterward.

Radio Bakery, the wildly popular Brooklyn pastry shop responsible for some of New York's longest food-related lines, is officially opening its first Manhattan location in 2027 at 463 Columbus Avenue between West 82nd and 83rd Streets.

The event brought together honorees from businesses to unions such as Rebecca Damon, of SAG-AFTRA; Henry Rubio, of the Council of School Supervisors & Administrators, as well as Arva R. Rice, of the New York Urban League. “I made quite a few connections,” Johnson said. “I met people I knew in name, not in person. It's been great to put a face on a name.”

EMS responded to the crime scene and transported the victim to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where doctors revealed that the victim was suffering from severe head and brain blunt force trauma. He succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead on April 17, 2022. Video surveillance tracked Lopez-Portillo backward from the pawn shop and s

“I moved on a whim. My lease was up in L.A., and all my best friends live in the city,” the 26-year-old tells me when we meet just weeks before the launch of her beauty line, o.piccola. Watching all six seasons of Sex and the City five times through might have also had a hand. “In my dreams, I would like to be a Carrie.”

The Soccer Streets events — a partnership between the city and the open streets nonprofit Street Lab, as well as the yogurt brand Chobani — will include activities such as pickup games, running drills, and painting team flags, according to City Hall. The pop-up activation events have been running since May 1 and will continue through the last day of school on June 26; however, Mamdani's office did not immediately specify the days or hours during which they are taking place.

“It makes sense that we're on reality television, because we're a fucking dramatic bunch,” says Ava Dash, the 26-year-old nepo baby-cum-reality star. “We were made for this. I'm glad we're on TV.” It's a Sunday night in March, and I'm in Noho to meet half the cast of Next Gen NYC, Bravo's New York-based, zoomer-centric reality show, just before the debut of its sophomore season.

"It was great. The audience is awesome, it's electric. It's good to be back after mending some fences. I do what I love. I got the best job in the world. I get to eat, travel, beat the heck out of people, and meet happy people. So it was great to be back."

Legendary New Yorker Fran Lebowitz is, once again, ready to tell you exactly what she thinks and, this time, you can hear it live.
