Happy Holidays & 2014 – the {new york} life This year has been a year…

TULUM – Retreat from city life Most of my friends were deciding where to get-away…
New Yorkers love to think they know everything about their city—where to find the best street-meat cart, how to avoid paying full price at museums, what route to take to skip traffic down Broadway. But New York City can reveal new treasures to even its most grizzled veterans. Beyond the city where we work, eat, play and commute every day lies a hidden New York: mysterious, forgotten, abandoned or just overlooked. I’ve compiled a list of New York City’s coolest secret spots, ones you’re not likely to read about in any guidebooks. Get out there and discover them (well, those that are accessible anyway) for yourself.
If you are planning to stay local for the holidays and don’t want to bother with all of the prep and clean up that comes with a standard Thanksgiving feast, here are some great restaurants to consider. Contact me at claudia@townrealestate.com to take advantage of our incredible concierge service, Luxury Attache, and gobble up these great Thanksgiving reservations before it’s too late. These spots will go fast and they’re available on a first come, first served basis!
With Thanksgiving coming up this month, I wanted to highlight some great ways NYC kids and their parents can help give back to those in need. Here are a range of opportunities for children of all ages so everyone can participate. While kids may not be able to work in a soup kitchen, they can certainly help the homeless and hungry in other meaningful ways.
A newly budding interest I’ve taken is in all of the fantastic artwork on display…
New York City, the largest in the U.S. in terms of population, is a gastronomical paradise with every type, quantity, style and price range of food available. There are so many restaurants within the five boroughs of New York City that you could eat at a different one every day and still not have tried them all 12 years later. That doesn’t stop most New Yorkers from trying the more than 4,200 restaurants in the city. If that many options seems a bit daunting here are a few to put at the top of your list.
Earlier this week I had the pleasure of visiting a building that will be a game-changer for the real estate industry everywhere. 66 East 11th Street, coined “The Delos,” is a remarkable example of a shift that is happening in real estate – a shift toward a more holistic, wellness-centered approach to development.
