The Essential New York It was 80 years ago that Where magazine was launched, and to celebrate, each month in 2016, I will be suggesting a NYC venue you can visit within 80 minutes. On a recent visit to the Merchant’s House, former home of the Tredwell family, I discovered it, too, is celebrating its 80th year—as a museum. The first building in Manhattan to be designated a landmark, it offers candlelight tours on which doors slam, and voices shriek. Is it the ghost of Gertrude, the Tredwell’s unmarried daughter, who lived in the house until she died, at 93, in 1933?

80 MINUTES IN: The image to the right was taken in 2011 as part of a recreation of patriarch Seabury Tredwell’s 1865 burial. The funeral took place in the parlor of the family home: Tredwell’s body was then entombed at the New York City Marble Cemetery on E. 2nd St. between First and Second aves. before being laid to rest in the family plot at Christ Church on Long Island. During a tour of the home, though, you can get to know the former residents intimately, which included Seabury

The Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art
Visiting a museum
for the first time can make your head spin. Where do you begin? One strategy is to aim for the stars—the superstar pieces that changed the course of art or simply make your heart beat a little faster. Only the Louvre has the Mona Lisa, but every world-class museum has its own must-see masterpieces guaranteed to thrill and nourish newcomers and repeaters alike. We asked leading authorities from top museums to choose their must-see masterworks and tell us why they’re too good to miss. Here are three you need to make the time to see.—Terry Trucco
“THE STARRY NIGHT” Meagan Johnson, Director of Membership and Visitor Services at the Museum of Modern Art, calls Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” “a beautiful picture. The inspiration came from his observation of the world and his imagination.” Wrote van Gogh in a letter to his brother Theo: “I saw the countryside from my window … with nothing but the morning star, which looked very big.” Museum of Modern Art, 11 W. 53rd St., 212.708.9400
TEMPLE OF DENDUR One of the highlights that Thomas P. Campbell, Director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, handpicked for an audio tour was the 2,000-year-old Temple of Dendur, a gift to America for helping save ancient Egyptian monuments from flooding. Campbell says the temple from the Nile offers visitors a chance “to experience a real Egyptian temple here in New York.” The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1000 Fifth Ave., 212.535.7710
TITANOSAUR The 147-year-old American Museum of Natural History boasts the newest attraction—its titanosaur, a 122-foot-long cast of an herbivore, on view since last January. “It’s so big the head of the dinosaur swoops out the doorway,” says Brad Harris, Senior Director of Visitor Services. Based on fossil bones excavated in Patagonia in 2014, the massive creature would have weighed as much as 10 elephants. American Museum of Natural History, Central Park West, at W. 79th St., 212.769.5100

BOROUGH BEAT
What’re You Lookin’ At? New York’s outer boroughs have a pulsating museum life of their own.—BY BOB CANNON
“Boxing Study 1805 Sergio Martinez, 2010,” at the Brooklyn Museum
The city’s museum culture is thriving in the outer boroughs. Here are some highlights: The trendiest of neighborhoods in 2016 is Brooklyn, and that sense of cool extends to the Brooklyn Museum, where a thrilling exhibition, called “Who Shot Sports: A Photographic History, 1843 to the Present,” offers some 230 works—from salted paper prints to up-to-the-minute digital images—that capture the universal appeal of sports. The people behind the lens range from familiar sports photographers to the infamous (Nazi propaganda filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl) and the unexpected (Andy Warhol). brooklynmuseum.org Slightly north of
Brooklyn is Queens and the Queens Museum, home to the stunning Panorama of the City of New York, a 9,335-square-foot model of all five boroughs created for the 1964 World’s Fair, complete with tiny replicas of the city’s landmarks. The museum doubled the size of its galleries in 2013, and a breathtaking glass facade faces Grand Central Parkway. queens museum.org A hop across the East River takes you to The Bronx Museum of the Arts. Through Oct. 23, the museum is presenting “Art AIDS America,” an exhibition that examines the potent influence of the AIDS crisis on American art and culture since 1981. The exhibition features more than 125
works in a wide range of media dating from 1981 to the present day, by artists including Annie Leibovitz, Robert Mapplethorpe and Martin Wong. On Oct. 12, the Bronx Museum unveils the second of two parts of “The Neighbors, Sanctuary: Andrea Bowers and Home: Andrea Aragón,” essentially a timely dialogue about immigration between Bowers, an American artist, and Guatemalan photographer Aragón, addressing issues surrounding cultural uprooting. bronx museum.org Finally, the southernmost borough has an impressive set of museums of its own, the most notable being the Staten Island Museum. Currently, the museum is exhibiting “Home Games,” an immense collection of the borough’s sports artifacts and memorabilia. It also has a fascinating Natural Hall of Science and an illuminating presentation of the first 100 years of the Staten Island Ferry. statenislandmuseum.org For visitors to the city, there’s a reason we have all those ferries and bridges connecting Manhattan to the other boroughs. There’s a whole world of culture out there.

New York Your Way UNIQUE TRAVEL RECOMMENDATIONS, FIT TO MATCH YOUR PERSONAL STYLE.
Off the Beaten Path
Budget Travelers
Romantics
October is the perfect month to check out the quirky (1) Morbid Anatomy Museum, where you can view such exhibits as “Walter Potter’s The Kittens’ Wedding and Friends,” a look at Victorian cat taxidermy. If you need a breath of fresh air afterward, head to the “other” great NYC park: At (2) Riverside Park, stroll, admire the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument and see where Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan met in “You’ve Got Mail” (the Promenade at W. 91st St.). If you are a fan of the Roaring Twenties, visit the (3) Raines Law Room speakeasy, where you could swear it was 1925.
Beer lovers will love (1) Brooklyn Brewery: $15 buys a small batch tour, beer tastings and a souvenir glass. If Broadway ticket prices have you turning white, just duck under the red steps at Times Square and W. 47th St. to the (2) TKTS Booth, where you can get tickets to Broadway and other shows for 20-50 percent off regular price. Besides free lectures and programs, a rare-book division and more, visiting the 42nd Street branch of the (3)New York Public Library also means a look at the city’s two most famous marble lions, Patience and Fortitude.
Arguably the city’s most romantic restaurant, (1) One if by Land, Two if by Sea, housed in a 1767 carriage house, offers candlelit tables, low lighting and a fireplace. Cool cocktails, a dark, moody ambience and hot jazz: If you’re in the mood for love, (2) Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola will stoke those fires: Oct. 29, Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks play sultry jazz sounds from the 1920s and 1930s. We all know that a provocative fragrance can be a powerful aphrodisiac: Why not custom-tailor one for yourself (or your targeted paramour) at (3) The Scentarium.
