C E L E B R AT I N G 8 0 Y E A R S O F T R AV E L

The Essential New York It was 80 years ago that Where magazine was launched, and to celebrate this fact, each month in 2016, I will be picking a favorite NYC venue to spend 80 minutes in. This month, I feel it is my patriotic duty to revisit Fraunces Tavern Museum. I not only get a generous dose of early American history from the museum that had been a tavern, a boardinghouse and an office building for the nation’s first departments of the War, Treasury and Foreign Affairs, but, just like the patriots, I can also enjoy a meal and a brew in the restaurant and bar.

FIRST, A LITTLE HISTORY:

Samuel Fraunces bought the redbrick building at 54 Pearl St. in 1762 and quickly made it a gathering place for patriots. Fastforward to December 1783: The Revolutionary War over, George Washington has the officers of the Continental Army

to the tavern to say farewell, as he was returning home to Mount Vernon.

Noted Col. Benjamin Tallmadge at the time, “Such a scene of sorrow and weeping I had never before witnessed and fondly hope I never be called to witness again.”

Two years later, Fraunces leased the building

to the government.

Eventually, it reverts to a tavern. In1907, it officially becomes a museum. You can view the Long Room, where Washington’s emotional farewell took place, a Federalist-style dining room and more. In the first-floor restaurant, eat like the colonists did: Chicken potpie and chowder soup are still on the menu!

HAMILTON GRANGE Explore Alexander Hamilton’s historic house at St. Nicholas Park in Harlem.

Originally on a 32-acre estate in Manhattan, “The Grange” took its name from the Hamilton family‘s ancestral home in Scotland.

414 W. 141st St., nps.gov/hagr

GOVERNORS ISLAND This island, a former U.S. Army post, still features two historic forts, dozens of landmarked buildings and space for artsy events, like Pinknic (see Hot Dates, p. 10).

Ferries from 10 South St. and Brooklyn‘s Pier 6, govisland.com

TIMES SQUARE (Broadway from W. 42nd to W. 47th sts.) The beginning of the pedestrian takeover started here, as this area gradually closed to traffic. Giving way to walkers has made Times Square much friendlier for all in a hurry to get to their Broadway curtain.

At the same time, just strolling and leisurely taking in the sites is now a lot easier.

PLAZA 33 (W. 33rd Street btw Seventh & Eighth aves.) This reclaimed stretch of concrete brings new life to the Madison Square Garden area. A public amphitheater offers music, yoga and movie nights, lots of greenery and one of the Roy Lichtenstein Brushstroke Group sculptures, which turns what was a chaotic part of the city into an oasis. Grab a sandwich from a nearby eatery and peoplewatch above it all on the wooden bleachers.

FLATIRON PLAZA (Broadway btw W. 22nd & W. 24th sts.) Take a seat at this triangular pedestrian plaza for a great perspective on one of New York’s most inspiring triangles

—the Flatiron building.

Summer brings plenty of live music and other entertainment. And just next door is the beautifully renovated Madison Square Park.

ST. VINCENT’S TRIANGLE PARK (Seventh Ave., Greenwich Ave. & W. 12th St.) This planted plaza in the midst of Greenwich Village becomes home to the New York City AIDS Memorial later this summer. The 18-foot canopy structure in the shape of three triangles will feature text from a Walt Whitman poem engraved in granite and a water feature. Plenty of seating and greenery offer visitors a place to rest and reflect.

LOUISE NEVELSON PLAZA (William St. & Liberty St.) Be sure to pass by this gem on your way to boats to the Statue of Liberty. The plaza is home to Nevelson’s seven sculptures entitled “Shadows and Flags.”

The glass benches give a moment’s rest and a look at these magnificent sculptures. Energy restored, you can continue your tour of Lower Manhattan.

Lynn’s Trapeze in Luna Park BROOKLYN JAUNT

Coney Island

With a reconstructed boardwalk for leisurely strolling, iconic rides, the original Nathan’s Famous hot dogs and even an innovative brewery (see sidebar), Coney Island is most definitely worth a visit. Besides the actual beach, there are countless things to do in this popular spot that has been enchanting visitors since the 1830s. Here are a few reasons why Coney Island—once the largest amusement area in the U.S.—is still a legendary destination in NYC.—KATIE LABOVITZ RIDES Luna Park is chock-full of rides for thrill-seekers. Get your rollercoaster fix with The Cyclone (opened in 1927, it’s one of the oldest wooden roller coasters in the U.S.) and Thunderbolt (flips and dips galore). Nearby, Deno’s Wonder Wheel Amusement Park offers numerous rides, including bumper cars and a trip on The Wonder Wheel. This famous Ferris wheel has cars that rock and slide (red or blue) or stay sta-

tionary (white) to accommodate riders who prefer to choose their level of adventure.

ATTRACTIONS See sharks, seals, penguins and more at the New York Aquarium, the oldest continually operating aquarium in the country. Enjoy baseball and other events at MCU Park, home of the Brooklyn Cyclones minor league baseball team. The stadium boasts a fantastic view of both amusement

parks and is situated underneath the Parachute Jump, a Coney Island landmark. Check out circus sideshows and, above the Freak Bar (a real bar), the Coney Island Museum.

EVENTS Coney Art Walls showcases 21 murals through October. This public project also offers food from vendors including Table 87 and Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. The Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk is a new 5,000-seat outdoor concert hall: Sting and Peter Gabriel play on July 3, The Beach Boys on July 4. There is also a beach fireworks show every Friday at 9:30 pm until Labor Day weekend. Coney Island is easy to get to via subway (take the D, F, N or Q train to the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue station), bus (the express X28 and X38 from Manhattan), car service or car rental (metered parking and commercial lots are available).

Mermaid Pilsner—This popular pilsner is a light-bodied crisp lager with a fruity, floral hop aroma.

2 Trapp’ed on the Cyclone (Brewery Exclusive)— A golden Tripel brewed with malts and hops.

3 Hard Root Beer—Brewed with vanilla, licorice and birch to taste exactly like root beer (for adults).

4 Brunch Beer (Limited Release)—A complex, fruity and dry Belgian ale fermented with pear and apple juices.

The TY Bar at The Four Seasons Hotel JUST FOR FUN

MAKE LIKE A NEW YORKER: MY DAY ON EAST 57TH STREET Call me crazy, but I love New York in July—how about you? And if the heat gets too much, I just head straight to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street to browse through the cool and oh-so-elegant Tiffany & Co. flagship store on Fifth Avenue. While I’d love to add the diamondaccented Atlas Dome watch ($7,550)—based on the still-working,

Tiki is trending at these New York City drinking establishments, which shun flashy atmospheres and crowds in favor of laid-back beachy vibes and fruity concoctions. Mother of Pearl (95 Ave. A, 212.614.6818) elevates tiki's kitschy qualities to a sophisticated level with swaying palm-leaf fans, retro parrot upholstery and subtle tiki totem bar stools. It also plays with presentation, using a never-ending variety of novelty glasses (sharks, seashells, skulls) and orchid-crowned cocktails, like Tiki Peat (above; almond, lime, ”Laura’s mix,” blended scotch, Islay single malt, bitters). Soak up the potent punches with small plates from the vegan, Polynesianinspired menu—the crispy coconut tofu and fried guacamole are divine. In Gowanus, Brooklyn, Korean eatery Insa (328 Douglass St., 718.855.2620) boasts a tiki bar that mixes drinks with East Asian elements and tropical flavors under a canopy of flower lights. Other great spots worth saying aloha to include Otto’s Shrunken Head (538 E. 14th St., 212.228.2240), Zombie Hut (273 Smith St., Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, 718.875.3433) and the Rusty Knot (425 West St., 212.645.5668).—J.S.

163-year-old clock that adorns the front of this landmark store—to my collection of timepieces, I’ll probably just settle for one of the store’s colorful Fifth Avenue mugs (at a much gentler price of $40), wrapped, of course, in the iconic blue box. Heading east on 57th Street, I’ll stop at the Fuller Building to peruse some of its fine art galleries (I particularly love the photography at Howard Greenberg and the 20th-century art at Jason McCoy) and then cap off the day at the TY Bar, located in the gorgeous I.M Pei-designed Four Seasons Hotel. Inside this Art Deco-designed fantasia with its super-comfy red velvet seats, I’ll sip a craft beer or iced tea and gaze at the digital photographs of New York projected on TY’s 12’ by 12’ screen, while the swells around me order such drinks as the Macallan M, with honey and orange bitters ($1,210) or nibble on some haute bar snacks such as prime sirloin sliders.

The Alexander Hamilton room at the Museum of American Finance HISTORICAL TREASURES

Hamilton in Manhattan Check out these Manhattan sights connected to Founding Father Alexander Hamilton.—BY LEE HOWARD IT’S A BATTLE ROYAL TRYING TO GET a

ticket to Broadway’s top show, “Hamilton,” the historical hip-hop musical based on the life of first U.S. Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton. So, whether or not you’re one of the lucky ones to nab a seat‚ this is a perfect month to be entertained with all other things Hamilton—considering, too, that July marks the 212th anniversary of the duel between Hamilton and Vice President Aaron Burr, which took place in nearby Weehawken, New Jersey, and cost Hamilton his life.

Several Manhattan places link to Hamilton’s life and death, starting in hip-hop central, Harlem, where the only house he ever owned is located.

Hamilton, a father of eight, built the

large family home in 1802. It was moved twice and finally shifted to St. Nicholas Park in 2008, where it was restored to its former glory. The house is open to the public for free as the Hamilton Grange National Memorial (414 W. 141st St., 646.548.2310), where rangers lead tours of period furnished rooms and exhibits.

Lin-Manuel Miranda, creator and star of “Hamilton,” wrote some of the show’s songs in the Morris-Jumel Mansion (65 Jumel Terr., near W. 160th St., 212.923.8008), where, on July 10, 1790, Hamilton dined with President George Washington and members of his administration. Some 40 years later, by a strange twist of fate, Aaron Burr married the widowed owner, Eliza

Jumel, in the downstairs parlor. The marriage only lasted three years. Eliza hired Alexander Hamilton’s son as her divorce attorney; Burr died the same day the divorce was granted in 1836.

Much farther downtown, Hamilton practiced law and later founded the Bank of New York. On Wall Street, in the former Bank of New York Building, the Museum of American Finance’s (48 Wall St., 212.908.4110) Alexander Hamilton Room details Hamilton’s postwar efforts to rebuild America and create the modern-day financial system. It also has two reproduction dueling pistols.

After Hamilton was shot and injured in the infamous duel, he was rowed back across the Hudson River to his friend William Bayard’s house, where he died the next day. At 82 Jane St., where the Bayard house once stood, a plaque commemorates the duel.

Finally, you can pay your respects by visiting Hamilton’s grave and tombstone in Trinity Church Cemetery (75 Broadway, 212.602.0800).

Off the Beaten Path

Art Lovers

(1) Green-Wood Cemetery (a National Historic Landmark) offers trolley tours, historic lectures and, with grave sites including those of Leonard Bernstein and Louis Comfort Tiffany, a Who’s Who of famous residents. (2) The National September 11 Memorial & Museum is a powerful and sobering reminder of the most horrific moment in modern U.S. history. Opened in 1825, (3) Delmonico’s restaurant not only served figures like Abraham Lincoln and Charles Dickens, the steak house also created Baked Alaska (above), still available on the menu!

A fan of museums that showcase the strange? If so, you will love (1) The Morbid Anatomy Museum, where you can delight in exhibits that include real human specimens and wax death masks of murderers. Not your standard bookshop, (2) Housing Works Bookstore Cafe sells only used books, with profits going to charity. The store offers free Wi-Fi, a café and regular events. If you are a fan of the Jazz Age, don’t miss a visit to (3) The Raines Law Room on W. 17th St. The bar mimics a 1920s speakeasy, where you summon your server with a wall buzzer.

One of the world’s grandest museums, (1) The Metropolitan Museum of Art has a permanent collection that is breathtaking, from its Medieval Sculpture Hall to its impressionist paintings. Like its namesake museum, the Museum of Modern Art, (2) The MoMA Design Store (above locale in SoHo) focuses on modern handcrafted objects, furniture and jewelry. At (3) The Noguchi Museum in Long Island City, Queens, you can delight in the Japanese-American sculptor Isamu Noguchi’s minimalist drawings and exquisite sculpture garden.
