From the PUBLISHER OF CITY GUIDE

Whatever your pleasure, a jam-packed few days or a leisurely visit, City Guide will make navigating your stay easier—after all, we’ve been helping visitors make the most of the Big Apple for 40 years. In these pages you can discover iconic NYC destinations, Broadway shows, restaurant and nightlife options, and many activities that will delight, educate, and entertain you. If you’re looking for more information visit cityguideny.com to find thousands of “fun to sees.”

NYC is back and stronger than ever, with new shopping destinations, five observatories, boats, buses, over 100 theaters, some of the world’s finest museums, and many great pop-up venues. Have a great time and welcome to our city.

Yours sincerely,

From the MAYOR OF NEW

As mayor of New York City, I am thrilled to join City Guide in welcoming you to this amazing city. Since 1982, City Guide has been the premier publication for visitors planning a trip to the Big Apple.

The tourism industry this past year has looked very different than in previous years. The COVID-19 pandemic slowed tourism virtually to a halt, leaving a significant impact on the $72 billion industry and the 400,000 jobs it supports. Annual visitors to our city dropped from a record high of 66.6 million in 2019 to 22.3 million in 2020. As our city embarks on the path to recovery, bringing the tourism sector back better than ever is one of my top priorities.

YORK

How do we attract visitors back to our city? By reminding them of all New York City’s unique treasures. From our lush parks to our worldclass cultural institutions, our diverse cuisine to our one-of-a-kind shopping, our historic architecture to our vibrant nightlife, this city has something to offer for everyone, in every borough. No matter where you go, I’m confident you’ll have a memorable experience – and we can’t wait to welcome you back with open arms.

Yours sincerely,

SIGHTSEEING

Immerse Yourself in the World’s Greatest Views

New York is a vertical city and there’s never been a better time to experience it, with five world-class observatories to choose from. The Western Hemisphere’s highest outdoor observation deck, Edge, stands atop the city’s newest neighborhood, Hudson Yards. Step out onto the triangular deck and you’ll be 100 floors above the ground with miles of visibility in every direction. Edge will also thrill you with its glass floor, providing views of the High Line below your feet. (Extra thrills can be found with City Climb, the highest external building climb in the world, which lets you scale from the observatory to the skyscraper’s top on open-air platforms and stairs.)

Across town near Grand Central, SUMMIT

One Vanderbilt takes the concept of an “observation deck” to new heights through 3 levels of multi-sensory interactions. At night, the art installations are transformed through a

one-of-a-kind light and sound story making the attraction a beacon of energy, visible to all of New York City and beyond.

For a downtown take on altitude, look to One World Observatory. It’s the tallest building in the hemisphere, and with over 40,000 metric tons of steel and a unique concrete core, it’s the strongest building in the world. After a minute’s ride, you’ll hit the Discovery Level (the main observatory), with 360° sights of the city and beyond. It’s all here, from the rivers to the harbor, from the Empire State Building to the Statue of Liberty, and on out to New Jersey’s ports and skylines. Pro tip: there’s excellent dining and drinking at ONE Dine, with seasonally inspired menus and unbeatable views.

See the Empire State Building for yourself and you’ll know immediately why the skyscraper has been named one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. Recent additions have made visits here better than ever. The Observatory Experience exhibition space is loaded with Instagram-ready displays that

show visitors the building up to today.

For immersion in the Art Deco glory of Manhattan, Rockefeller Center’s Top of the Rock is your destination. There are both indoor and outdoor viewing areas here—for the latter, transparent safety-glass panels allow wholly unobstructed views of the city’s landmarks, including all of Central Park.

Just a blink from NYC on the New Jersey side you’ll find American Dream, which boasts the largest indoor theme park in North America plus skiing, skating, mini golf, pizza, barbecue, luxury retailers, and even an aquarium. There are more than 3 million square feet to explore, with something for everyone—no matter the weather.

When you want to pose “in a moment in time” with the world’s most iconic musicians, leaders, athletes, and A-list stars, Madame Tussauds in Times Square is your destination. In addition to being “the world’s greatest wax museum,” you can immerse yourself in adventures like the MARVEL Super Heroes 4D Film & Experience and the multi-sensory Coney Island Carnival Carnage 7D Game

Near Grand Central you can be the hero of your very own adventure at The Escape Game Find clues and solve puzzles as a team on your way to completing a mission. There are five rooms to choose from and a Game Guide is available at all times during your adventure.

Downtown along the East River, two centuries of New York City come together at The Seaport. This district blends quaint cobblestone streets with contemporary shopping and dining. There are also incredible perspectives

on the Brooklyn Bridge and the water. The South Street Seaport Museum is also here, telling the story of “Where New York Begins” through art, artifacts, and a fleet of historic vessels. Don’t miss the area’s latest addition, the Tin Building by Jean-Georges. Legendary chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten has filled a historic two-story space with retail, restaurants, and an impeccably stocked central market with locally sourced seafood, meats, cheeses, seasonal produce, chef-grade pantry staples, and rare ingredients.

The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are two of the most famous historical sites in NYC. If you want to see them first-hand, Statue City Cruises is the only way to get there. Boats depart from Battery Park City in Lower Manhattan and Liberty State Park in New Jersey, providing memorable tours through New York Harbor. In addition to the historic stops, you’ll get amazing perspectives on water, shipping, and skylines.

For more great water views, check out the many great departures from City Cruises. Seastreak is great for excursions, including summer Whale Watching tours.

When you arrive on Liberty Island, you’ll find the Statue of Liberty Museum. Breathtaking views are joined by a $100 million destination that includes memorabilia, an immersive film, and up close looks at the statue’s original torch, a 3,600-pound copper flame. Opened in 1892, Ellis Island was the gateway for 12 million newly minted Americans. Some 40% of the U.S. population traces their ancestry here. Visitors can explore the grand French Renaissance style main building and The National Immigration Museum.

The legendary aircraft carrier that’s now the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum takes visitors on an interactive journey through history to learn about American innovation and bravery. The museum includes the Space Shuttle Pavilion, home to Enterprise, the world’s first space shuttle. Also on display on the flight deck are 28 authentically restored aircraft, including the British Airways Concorde, the fastest commercial aircraft to ever cross the Atlantic.

New York offers memorable ways to celebrate Dad. If he’s in the mood for beef, it’s hard to beat the classic experience of a New York City steakhouse

The staff at Benjamin Steakhouse is courteous, accommodating, and knowledgeable of a menu that includes everyone’s favorites—sirloin, filet mignon, lamb, and veal chops are all dry-aged in Benjamin Steakhouse’s own aging box. The grill gets the spotlight at nearby spin-off Benjamin Prime, turning out USDA prime dry-aged steaks. (There’s also a great seafood selection, drawing on the expertise of another sibling spot, The Sea Fire Grill.) The steakhouse’s luxurious, roomy space is convenient to Grand Central and the heart of midtown.

The Palm Restaurant is a dining tradition that has been handed down

6.15-6.22

for generations. Look for fan favorite lobster, Italian specialties, and, of course, stellar steaks. Friday through Sunday, treat Dad to a special prime pork tomahawk with a cherry pepper mix. The Palm Midtown is a natural dining destination before or after a Broadway show and The Palm Tribeca is just steps away from the Financial District and the Hudson.

A Midtown East standout is Ben & Jack’s Steakhouse, which has been serving up a quintessential NYC steakhouse experience since 2005. They celebrate everything Dad loves about USDA Prime dry-aged beef, succulent and cooked to perfection.

Strip House brings soaring steak to a bi-level space near Bryant Park. From Thursday through Monday the signature menu will be accompanied by special Chef’s Features like oysters Rockefeller, a prime bone-in Kansas City strip steak with

black truffle sauce, and black velvet Guinness cake. There’s a second location near Union Square, Strip House Downtown, with a similar vintage interior and stellar steaks.

Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse (above) reflects the energy, vibrancy, and romanticism of the city. Excellent service combines with generous portions of prime steaks, including cuts like filet mignon, a bone-in filet, and Prime New York Strip.

Morton’s The Steakhouse blends classic and contemporary while excelling in USDA prime-aged beef, fresh seafood, fine wine, and elegant desserts. This Father’s Day, don’t miss a special slow-roasted prime rib topped with au jus and whipped horseradish. There’s also an exclusive cocktail for the day, a take on the classic Old Fashioned served with Vosges Haut-Chocolat’s Brown Butter Truffle.

Coney Island retains its old school summer appeal, with a beach, a boardwalk, roller coasters, and a Ferris Wheel. It also breaks out the carnival spirit for the nation’s largest art procession, the Mermaid Parade, which takes place this Saturday. At the 41st annual version of the procession, look for floats, vintage cars, and much-to-see under-the-sea costumes. The parade starts on West 21st and Surf Avenue at 1pm. A beach ceremony and the unofficial opening of the ocean for the summer swimming season follow. Night brings The Mermaid Parade Ball, an after party at the Coney Island Brewery. coneyisland.com

Every Sunday on the Upper West Side you can check out Grand Bazaar NYC, the city’s largest curated market—and most distinctive. This week you’ll also find the Father’s Day Pop-up. Awesome dads and those who love to shop for them will find a unique selection of vendors who specialize in men’s apparel and accessories, vintage collectibles, home decor, body care, leather goods, and much more.

(On Wednesday, June 21st, vendors along Sixth Avenue in midtown will have lobster rolls, organic Japanese rice bowls, Brazilian acai bowls, BBQ sandwiches, authentic Filipino dishes, freshly baked cookies, and more as Grand Bazaar presents the Summer Solstice Food Festival.)

Kenzo Digital, an immersive storytelling studio, is behind AIR at SUMMIT, an experience which creates the illusion of boundless space with 1,215 mirrors.

Come inside for

culture

NYC has museums and immersive experiences with something for everyone, from art to theatre to the city itself.

The historic boiler room of Chelsea Market is the home of immersive art space ARTECHOUSE. You’ve never seen art like this before, as room-sized digital projections merge with sound design to create a cinematic experience. Ignite your imagination at new show Beyond the Light, which uses the latest technologies, an original musical score created from galactic data, and stunning imagery and findings from the James Webb Space Telescope.

Art also meets tech at the inaugural Hall des Lumières exhibition, Gustav Klimt: Gold in Motion. The Austrian symbolist painter’s most iconic works come to life using cutting-edge mapping technology. You’ll enter a world of gold and color as an original soundtrack plays. The setting, a landmark former bank building near City Hall, combines immersive projections with soaring Beaux-Arts architecture.

Nearby in the Financial District, the National September 11 Memorial & Museum features two core exhibitions at the foundation of the former World Trade Center complex downtown. A memorial exhibition—In Memoriam—pays

tribute to the 2,983 men, women and children killed on 9/11 and in the 1993 WTC bombing. On the plaza outside you’ll encounter two reflecting pools, featuring North America’s largest man-made waterfalls.

Not so much a museum as a sprawling, multi-faceted campus, the South Street Seaport Museum encompasses historic sailing vessels, a working 19th-century print shop, and a collection of artifacts and art. The museum’s introduction gallery is a great first stop, examining the role of the neighborhood in New York City’s rise to prominence.

The quaint neighborhood of Gramercy hosts Fotografiska New York, a museum experience for the modern world. It’s a destination to discover world-class photography, eclectic programming, and surprising new perspectives. The museum is open late every day, with a vibrant atmosphere unlike any other in the city. The philosophy here is “Have fun. Stay late. Get deep. Spill your drink.“

You can laugh, scream, run, take selfies, and generally do the kinds of things they don’t

allow in less fun destinations at the Museum of Illusions in Chelsea. You (or your prankster friend) can become a head on a platter, plus there’s an Anti-Gravity Room, an Infinity Room (a hall of mirrors for the 21st century), and a room where you’ll walk on walls. Nothing is as it seems, it’s all illusion.

The Upper East Side is home to some of the most famous institutions in the world. The Museum of the City of New York interprets, celebrates, and documents New York—past, present, and future. The museum’s third floor is dedicated to This Is New York: 100 Years of the City in Art and Pop Culture. The show looks at how NYC has inspired artists, writers, and other creators, and includes a one-of-a-kind 16-screen immersive film experience.

The Met Museum displays some of the greatest cultural treasures in the world, representing every category of art from just about every country from every time period spanning the Stone Age to the present. You can lose yourself for hours here; if you need to recharge, The Temple of Dendur somehow manages to be simultaneously epic and chill.

The Guggenheim Museum is Frank Lloyd Wright’s masterpiece of modern architecture. Completed in 1959, it’s home to one of the world’s finest collections of modern and contemporary art, including works by artists such as Kandinsky, Picasso, and Pollock. The building itself belongs in a museum—one of the world’s most famous structures, spiraling upward in sinuous curves.

Across town along Central Park West, the American Museum of Natural History was founded in 1869 and still carries on its mission of discovering and interpreting the natural world. Families love exploring the acres of exhibits here, in addition to the futuristic sphere of The Hayden Planetarium. The long-awaited Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation (above, upper right) has just opened, with a butterfly vivarium, an insectarium, and the immersive experience Invisible Worlds

The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) is fresh off a lengthy expansion and renovation project. A must-see for even the most casual art fan, six levels here cover an immense range of contemporary and modern art. Works include prints and illustrated books, architecture, design and drawing, paintings and sculpture, and photography and video installations. World-famous art by Warhol, van Gogh, Monet, Kahlo, and Picasso can all be found, joined by intriguing temporary exhibitions.

The interactive, experiential Museum of Broadway near Times Square leads guests on a journey through a visual history of Broadway, highlighting groundbreaking moments with costumes, props, renderings, rare photos, and videos. Along the way, visitors get the stories of pivotal shows that transformed the landscape of Broadway. The museum highlights more than 500 productions from the 1700s through the present.

SHOPPING OUTSIDE

SHOPIN THE CITY

One of the city’s great pleasures is exploring its stores—and by extension, its neighborhoods. In Lower Manhattan don’t miss the soaring, cathedral-like space that defines the Oculus The world-class collection of shops here is definitely about time—or it will be, when you peruse the selection of timepieces at Breitling, Tissot, and Longines. You’ll also find the perfect writing implement at Mont Blanc along with major players like Apple and Banana Republic.

A little ways north is the perennially chic SoHo, which retains its cult status with a focus on the cutting edge (Y3 Concept Store, with clothing by Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto; the trendy A.P.C, with an emphasis on stylish basics like denim, outerwear, and sweatshirts).

Just to the east sits Nolita, a small-scale neighborhood with boutiques like Love Adorned, with jewelry and home goods, and Supreme, known for its collaborations with musicians and designers.

Upmarket shoppers flock to the Meatpacking District, where women’s fashion can be found at Alice + Olivia, perfume at Bond No 9, and men’s and women’s boutique picks at Marni Meatpacking Market.

Just uptown from there is one of the city’s newest shopping—and must see—destinations: Hudson Yards Beyond the Edge features gifts and collectibles, many created just for Hudson Yards; Carmen Sol is on a mission to make its eco-conscious “jelly” material a staple with its shoes, bags, and jewelry.

Right off Central Park you’ll find The Shops at Columbus Circle, where MAC, Moleskine, Montmartre, and Michael Kors beckon, while newer

outposts like Lululemon and CAMP offer ways to work out or work in time for creativity.

Fifth and Madison Avenues can’t be missed (they’re classics, after all). Head to the former, arguably New York’s most famous street, for a who’s who of designer fashion. From Bulgari to Cartier, Tiffany to Gucci, the storied street never goes out of fashion—much like its stores. Madison Avenue’s names include Fendi, Giorgio Armani, and Berluti.

Another Midtown East legend is Bloomingdale’s 59th Street, the luxury department store legend, which is nearby on Lexington Avenue.

Near Times Square, Cockpit USA has been reproducing genuine, contemporary versions of iconic American-made aviator clothing for nearly half a century. Sports fans won’t want to miss Pelé Soccer, The World’s Greatest Soccer Store.

Grand Central Terminal is not just one of the city’s most inspiring public spaces, it’s also an excellent place to shop, with great souvenirs from the New York Transit Museum and local favorites like Jacques Torres Chocolate and ingredient specialists Spices and Tease

Just a blink from NYC on the New Jersey side you’ll find American Dream, with the largest indoor theme park in North America plus skiing, skating, mini golf, pizza, barbecue, luxury retailers, and even an aquarium. A staple at the complex is The Avenue at American Dream, a luxury shopping and dining experience with a curated collection of world-renowned fashion brands.

Broadway Your Way: A Visitor’s Guide

“Hot town, summer in the city” is equal parts weather forecast, golden oldie lyric, and Big Apple mantra during June, July, and August. Here sultry days are filled with foodie street fests, pop-up performances in Times Square, and Central Park R&R. Best, though, is when evening rolls in and Broadway comes alive with high profile productions and stars for the ultimate in showbiz sorcery.

During heatwave season, by all means go for Broadway’s most literal title—Some Like It Hot—even though the musical is so much more. Two best buds, played by Christian Borle and J. Harrison Ghee, channel 1920s feminine mystique (or hilarious lack thereof) while on the run from gangsters as members of an all-girl band.

Should you prefer your torrid staging saturated in classical myth, book a one-way ticket to Hadestown, where original stars Reeve Carney and Eva Noblezada bring the poignant love story of Orpheus and Eurydice to haunting life, alongside another more jaded relationship, that of Hades and Persephone. Melding a New Orleans backdrop with Greek gods and goddesses, this 2019 Tony-winning musical by singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and director Rachel Chavkin is a tantalizing must-see.

WHEN THE MUSIC GETS YOU

Lately, social media has felt the need to state the obvious: the groups and singers

we gravitate to are the ones we listened to in our teens. You can expand on that roster if you grew up playing Broadway cast albums. True devotees know every song in currently running revivals like Camelot and Funny Girl, and jukebox musicals are a pop music minefield: How Do You Not Sing Along? Moulin Rouge’s “Sparkling Diamond” mashup of “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend”, “Material Girl,” “Single Ladies,” and several others, e.g.; Will Swenson in A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical, brilliantly embodying the title character with a score packed with the singer’s retro hits; and & Juliet, a show overflowing with hits by Max Martin, the pop music mastermind whose

Even non-jukebox musicals are shimmering onto Broadway with a mondo pop hit front and center: the title song of Kander and Ebb’s New York, New York. I defy you to read the title without humming “Start spreading the news…”. And when the number finally bursts into a soaring, show-stopping/show-topping rendition, I assure you, audience restraint cannot be guaranteed.

Fortunately, with most of these shows, theatregoers can unleash their inner vocalists during standing ovations and post-curtain call mini-concerts. “Sweet Caroline,” anyone?

NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK

With the 76th Annual Tonys come and gone,

THE TOAST OF BROADWAY

Broadway has begun welcoming its first bullpen of 2023-2024 Tony contenders.

Now Trending: visitors to NYC are able to check out several new productions before the fall. I give you the shows that make up 2023’s diverse summer lineup (in alphabetical order):

• Back to the Future: The Musical. You know the film, now strap into the DeLorean for a trip back to 1955; previewing 6/30 for an 8/3 opening.

• The Cottage. Romcom set in 1923 England starring Eric McCormack and Laura Bell Bundy; previewing 7/7 for a 7/24 opening.

• Grey House. A psychological thriller starring Laurie Metcalf; officially opened 5/30.

• Here Lies Love. An immersive disco musical about Imelda Marcos featuring a score by David Byrne and Fatboy Slim;

With a title deftly plucked from the musical Company, I’ll Drink to That! is an intoxicating new theatre/”cocktail table” book that immerses the reader in “Broadway’s Legendary Stars, Classic Shows, and the Cocktails They Inspired.” Written by musical theatre historian Laurence Maslon, with photography by noted theatrical photographer Joan Marcus, the book is a savvy blend of craft cocktail recipes, showbiz scuttlebutt, and stunning Broadway production shots and drink close-ups.

Notes Maslon: “Ever since my parents took me, as a wee lad, to see Maggie Smith in Noël Coward’s Private Lives, it struck me that the glamour of Broadway and the elegance of a cocktail will always go hand in glove—or ‘hand and glass,’ I should say. This book—with Joan Marcus’s sparkling photos—gives readers an effervescent overview of that bubbly relationship, as well as more than a few choice anecdotes to dazzle any after-show cocktail conversation.”

Available wherever books are sold.

previewing 6/17 for a 7/20 opening.

• Once Upon a One More Time. Fairy tale heroines flip the script to the tune of Britney Spears’ greatest hits; in previews for an official 6/22 opening.

As for late in the summer, let’s just say you’re gonna need a bigger boat to hold the Olivier-nominated comedy The Shark Is Broken, tracking the behind-the-scenes chaos surrounding the filming of JAWS. (Previewing 7/25 for an 8/10 opening.) Also in the mix, for a limited two-week run (8/17 thru 8/27), is El Mago Pop, aka European superstar illusionist Antonio Díaz
