Postcards from New York City

Posted on by
Bryant Park

We love New York. We love Chicago more. But still, we love NY for its high intensity all night vibe, it’s endless walks, the cool AF people who live there and it’s amazing architecture (all spiraling upwards and fueled by the millions and millions of immigrants who have passed through). Hands down the second best city in America.

Caffe Reggio in the Village; they may have invented the cappuccino. This is the espresso machine that once caffeinated a lot of NY dreams.
They even have their own Bean. Same artist and everything. And for some reason they squished it into a random tight spot in Tribeca that hardly anyone knows about.
Winnie the Pooh and friends. These are the actual stuffies A.A. Milne purchased for his son Christopher Robin. You can see them, for free, at the New York Public Library located behind Bryant Park.
The greatest hour of television ever.
From top to bottom: Inside St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the beautiful lady spied from the SI Ferry, having a hamentashen at the Hungarian Pastry Shop in Harlem, in Central Park The Ramble and also the city reflected in a pond. The last pic was taken near the 911 museum. Paid for the hamentashen but every other experience was free.
A lot of little things to gawk at too.

We spent almost a week in Gotham. And we are exhausted. Honestly the city kicked our asses. But we cannot wait to get back.

After reading “Just Kids” by Patty Smith we were inspired to visit the Hotel Chelsea, form a punk band and publish a bunch of books. Sadly we were only able to do just one of the three.
