New York never stops, it doesn’t sleep, and certainly doesn’t take a rest, at any point in the year. Â That’s what makes it one of the most desirable places to visit, and it’s certainly something everyone should experience at least once. Â Repeat visitors and sometimes residents know that it gets better and better each time, and the more you know your way around the city, the more there is to see. Â However, even first-time visitors will have more than enough to do, and will love their time in New York, USA. Â Hotel accommodations are easy to find, and there are a dizzying array of choices. Â We’ve taken care to select some of the best, so that you can save the guesswork for the activities and attractions.
You’ll love waking up in splendor, with decor that is extremely stylish, and speaks to the best of classical design and embraces the best of the new. Â Waking up to New York hospitality is lovely, and it’s a great way to begin the day, when you’ll feel a spark of rejuvenation even before breakfast. Â Enjoy a fantastic meal prepared by world class chefs schooled in classical and contemporary cuisines, and you’re off to have an adventure in New York City! Â If you’re looking for an experience in the heart of the gritty New York art world, if it can still be called gritty, then by all means, head down to Reena Spauldings.
To be fair, this is gritty, and it is in the Lower East Side, which has cleaned up an awful lot in the past few years, for better or worse. Â When artists move in, the rents usually go up, until the artists can’t afford to live in their own neighborhoods. Â At least, that’s been the trend. Â But it looks like they may have sidestepped that trap at Reena Spauldings. Â It’s the brainchild and sometimes alter-art-ego of Emily Sundblad, whose been making a very good name for herself lately. Â Her performance installations are hard to get into, which is exactly what downtown artists want, so it’s worth it to try while you’re here. Â She opened a storefront gallery in the cheapest place possible in 2002, and turned it into a place for her friends to come and hang out, and it just kept getting cooler. Â Now it’s a fantastic place, with a sensational eye for good work, and an atmosphere that is edgy and exciting, and utterly New York.
