A New Jewel in the Crown of the American Museum of Natural History The newly opened Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City is a marvel of modern architecture and interactive science education. Designed by the renowned Studio Gang, this $465 million project transforms the museum experience with its innovative design and immersive exhibits. The Gilder Center’s architecture is inspired by natural geological formations, creating a canyon-like atmosphere that encourages exploration and discovery. The building’s exterior features Milford pink granite, harmonizing with the museum’s historical aesthetic, while the interior boasts a five-story atrium with undulating walls and skylights that flood the space with natural light. This design not only enhances visitor circulation but also integrates seamlessly with the museum’s existing structures, creating over 30 new connections among its buildings.

THE ROOFTOP GUIDE
The Cantor Roof Garden Bar is located on top of one of the world's most famous museums: The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The museum itself is, of course, a thing of beauty, located smack in the middle of Central Park and giving visitors access to beautiful works of art. The Cantor doesn't fall far behind, as it offers stunning views of the park and the surrounding skyscrapers, as well as a large and lush rooftop garden with park benches and comfortable tables to sit at. You can also sit down on the lawn if you're so inclined. Wine by the glass, house-made lemonade and specialty cocktails make up the drink menu, but you can also find sandwiches and salads in case you get hungry. Open during the warmer months, access to the rooftop is available to all museum visitors. And filled with a very relaxing and friendly atmosphere, it is a great spot to bring children and enjoy the lush views.

Joe Allen It's definitely a staple and an iconic place. I love it half for the musical flop posters that are everywhere, because I always see one that I haven't seen before. It always starts conversations with people who happened to see the two-week runs of random shows that are on the walls and just feel super storied. It's become more theater fans than theater people over the years, but it's real theater fans. It tends to be people who are frequenting [shows]; it feels authentic. And the food, it's really yummy. I think it's a really good pre and post-show place, particularly family-wise. It's a really good, storied, New York, capital N, capital Y kind of spot.

The Cheapest Drinks In NYC: Jimmy's Corner We’d come to this classic Times Square dive even if it weren’t for the $3.50 well drinks. The walls have boxing memorabilia (the founder used to be a coach), a neon jukebox plays soul hits, and you can spot the long-time bartenders in photos on the laminated tables in the back room. And the drinks? Small and icy, but very effective.

IMHO seeing the statue from the water is a much better experience than going to the island.
