Modern art's definitive home.
Refined, theatrical, high-touch hospitality.
The definitive New York appetizing store since 1914. Four generations of smoked fish perfection.
Old-money NYC, discretion as art form.
Robert De Niro's answer to impersonal luxury. Every room is different, the pool is a Japanese-style oasis, and Locanda Verde downstairs is its own draw.
The encyclopedic museum to end all museums. Two million years of human creativity under one roof.
Effortless Italian that feels like a secret everyone knows. The kind of place where the menu changes with the seasons and the pasta is always perfect.

The speakeasy that launched a thousand imitators. Enter through a phone booth inside Crif Dogs.
Medieval European art in reassembled monastery architecture overlooking the Hudson. The Unicorn Tapestries alone justify the trip.
Theatrical Italian-American where the veal parm is religion and the waiters wear red jackets. Loud, proud, and unapologetically old-school.
Where the downtown creative class goes to be seen not trying to be seen. The lobby is a living room where models and musicians drink coffee past noon.
Old masters in a Fifth Avenue mansion. Vermeer, Bellini, Holbein in rooms scaled for private enjoyment. The garden court is a sanctuary.

Ronnie Fieg's streetwear empire flagship. Where sneaker culture meets fashion, with a Treats cereal bar for good measure.
Renzo Piano's Whitney building at the foot of the High Line. American art with outdoor terraces and views that compete with the collection.
$$$$Quiet, precise, legacy luxury.
$$$The Paris brasserie that New York deserved. Keith McNally's masterpiece has been packing them in since 1997, and the steak frites haven't aged a day.
$$German and Austrian art in a Beaux-Arts mansion. Home to Klimt's golden portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer. Intimate and exquisite.
$$$Parisian bones in a Manhattan address. The library is moody, the roast chicken is famous, and the whole thing feels like a more elegant era.
$$Fourth-generation appetizing store turned sit-down restaurant. This is New York on a plate.
$$Brooklyn's encyclopedic museum with strengths in Egyptian, American, and contemporary. First Saturdays are legendary free parties.
$$$Straddling the High Line with floor-to-ceiling windows and no curtains for the exhibitionist set. Le Bain on the roof, Standard Grill below.
$$The hotel that made lobbies co-working spaces before WeWork existed. Breslin restaurant, Stumptown coffee, and more MacBooks than a tech conference.
$$Oscar Farinetti's Italian marketplace. A temple to Italian food with restaurants, counters, and retail under one roof.
$$MoMA's Queens outpost in a former public school. Experimental, challenging, and home to the legendary Warm Up summer series.
$$$The skate brand that became a billion-dollar cultural phenomenon. Now LVMH-owned, but the Thursday drops still cause lines.
