Things to see and do New York

At the foot of the High Line, this beautiful gallery exhibits pop art and contemporary works by well-known artists (Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Banksy...), unknown artists and young talents from all over the world. Immense love for the works of Mr. Brainwash, French painter and Banksy's protégé, who juxtaposes graffiti on historical photos or icons. If you have the means, you can treat yourself to one of his paintings... Works of a rare quality for a gallery whose access is entirely free!

A site in English that indicates everything that needs to be done, to see, where to eat, where to spend the evening. There is everything on everything. A sort of calendar allows you to know what happens at a specific date. A very high-performance directory service will allow you to find the coordinates and locate any institution that interests you.

Everything is indicated, cultural or sporting events, evenings in bars and boxes, concerts, cinema, etc. This is the best general guide for someone who comes from a holiday in New York.

This museum only exhibits temporary exhibitions of African and Afro-American art.

They are always very varied and offer paintings, sculptures, masks and sacred objects. Compared to other ethnic museums, it presents both traditional and ancient works as well as contemporary works. The museum shop sells various crafts and crafts in relation to the current expo.

It's Father Lachaise from New York. Bat Masterson, the sheriff who cleaned up Dodge City before he became a press man in New York, is buried there. And many others with him: players, sportsmen, avid amateurs from the first to the theatre, artists' agents. There's Herman Melville, Duke Ellington and Miles Davis. Bert Williams, who was the first to win a million dollars in vaudeville, is there, but his buddies Bat Masterson and Damon Runyon had to pass the hat to have him buried. Among the other residents for eternity, we can mention Admiral Farragut, the merchant F.-W. Woolworth, Mayor Fiorello La Guardia, Joseph Pulitzer, Alexander Archipenko (who sculpted his own cubist head), Congressman Vito Marcantonio, bacteriologist Hideyo Nohuchi, other mayors and, among four Confederate generals, Archibald Gracie, whose family home Gracie Mansion is now the residence of the city's mayors. A free map awaits you at the entrance. The easiest way to get there is to go to the last stop on line 4. The metro leaves the tunnel at Yankee Stadium and allows you to fly over the Bronx. The journey is dangerous at night for tourists, but correct during the day. The cemetery has a greater variety of trees than the city's two botanical gardens. During the Civil War, Woodlawn served as a fortification to support the retreat of Washington, from the northern Bronx River Valley to White Plains.

It is the seat of the Holy Trinity Choir and the Bach Orchestra, and the only American church where Bach cantatas are interpreted according to the liturgical calendar.

For its organ concerts.

For his gospel choir.

At the beginning of the century, there were four children of genius: the Marx Brothers.

In this particular house, Montgomery Clift lived for six years, among the most difficult of his tormented existence.

The particularity of this place is the presence of plants mentioned in the Bible.

The Americans love this aquatic, gastronomic and dancing escape with a friendly service and atmosphere. For American holidays (Valentine's Day, July 4, Thanksgiving and Day of the year), World Yacht organises special Cruises as well as Theme lunches. One would think of the beginning of an transoceanic cruise. From West Side to East Side, with a prolonged stop at the foot of the statue of Freedom seized in its solitude, the big diamond Manhattan is shining in the night of troubling shine… The Water brunch can be a superb experience to start Sunday on the right foot, in calm and beauty.

It is not the best known helicopter company (it is even one of the last ones), but it is very dynamic, commercially aggressive and offers the advantage of avoiding long expectations of its competitors. You call or pass and, as soon as there are 5 people, the helicopter flies. Open your eyes anyway and bring your cameras because, if the experience is unforgettable, the minutes get fast.

It is a beautiful alley that leads to The Lake.

Built in 1908, it was at the time the most luxurious residential building in New York, and it is still one of the most beautiful. The twelve-story building, Renaissance style, was more or less deserted in the 1930 s, when the neighborhood became malfamed. He obtained the status of historic building in the national register in 1979 and was restored in the 1980 s and 1990 s. It has lost nothing from its superb and remains one of Manhattan's most prominent addresses. It now houses the restaurant Petrossian.
