By Seth Fera-Schanes Summer in the city is a showcase of the weather’s emotions. Hot and humid one minute, pouring rain the next. 90 degrees on a Saturday and 66 on Sunday. The ups and downs can be a little hard to understand but there are perfect moments […]

While Broadway churns out magical and sensationalized works; there are others few know about that return to a forgotten part of life the “human spirit”. The Producing Club and Ctemko have put together a play that encompasses the very fabric of the human condition.

By Seth Fera-Schanes The Harlem Meer is a lake located at the north eastern corner of Central Park. It is easily accessible by the 2,3 train or the B,C or 6 trains but those require a little additional walking time. If you decide to head up to the […]
By Katie Donovan At the beginning of every week, I check my weather app on my iPhone to see what the week has in store for me, and my fellow New Yorkers. While last week showed that Tuesday should have snowed, it barely did. I must have missed […]
By Seth Fera-Schanes The moment you enter Murray’s Cheese, located in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, you know you are in someplace special. A cheese shop that was started in the 1940’s, Murray’s ranks high among the other New York food greats like Zabar’s, Russ and Daughters and Barney Greengrass. […]
