Midtown Manhattan - The Cultural Heart of New York City
The performing arts are everywhere in New York City. Over the past 18 months, the city's performing artists remained unstoppable. From Brian Stokes Mitchell's nightly serenades from his Broadway window to the Dance Theater of Harlem's virtuoso performance to the strains of J.S. Bach, the show did go on.

Now, the outstanding live performance venues for which the city is known are reopening, and some of the most iconic can be found in and around Midtown Manhattan. Broadway is back, and so are The Metropolitan Opera, Carnegie Hall, Jazz at Lincoln Center and Radio City Music Hall.

Prime Property | For Investment | Central Park South
With its over 10-foot, coffered and beamed ceilings, crown molding and blond wood, wide-plank, herringbone flooring, Residence 1817 echoes the fine details of Essex House, originally completed in 1931 in the Art Deco style. This spacious one-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers both space for two separate home offices by day and comfortable and quiet areas in which to rest and to relax by night. Tall, northwest-facing windows overlook a classic New York City view with architectural styles both classic and contemporary. Investors only. Tenant in place through April 2023.


Prime Property | For Purchase | Midtown West Penthouse
The largest residence atop Midtown's classic Executive Plaza condominium, this spectacular corner penthouse offers partial Central Park views from every room in addition to partial Hudson River views from the living room and the primary bedroom. With northern and western exposures and a complete and thoughtful total renovation, this three-bedroom, two-bath duplex combines the radiance of a new home with the luxury of an established building (built in 1926) with experienced and attentive staff.


Prime Property | For Lease | Midtown East - Turtle Bay
A corner three-bedroom, two-bath home with southern and eastern exposures and a private balcony with two entrances, Residence 7F in L'Ecole is filled with light throughout the day. An expansive living area is flanked by the balcony, with ample room for seating as well as a garden, and the open kitchen.


Cocktail Recipe | Martini | Knickerbocker Hotel | 1911
Legend has it that a Knickerbocker bartender named Martini di Arma di Taggia served hotel regular John D. Rockefeller an “unfamiliar concoction” in 1911. He loved the drink, and dubbed it the “martini” after its creator.

Dinner and a Show...or Even Just Dinner
Chez Napoléon - From the Hudson to the Seine
Since 1960, Chez Napoléon restaurant has been a favorite culinary destination in this neighborhood from when it was teeming with many classic French restaurants catering to voyagers disembarking from cross Atlantic ships docked at the Hudson River piers at the west end of 50th Street.

It was in 1982 that the Bruno family – actually the third, yet longest, family to own Chez Napoléon – came to stylize, craft and perfect a menu that showcases and represents most regional specialties throughout France’s broad culinary delights. This is largely thanks to Chef ‘Grandmere’ Marguerite Bruno’s unique know-how of bringing home styled Sunday night dinner, French comfort food from the home kitchen and into a small restaurant setting.

This tiny, humble restaurant is now run by Elyane Bruno and her son, William Welles, who are very proud to continue this tradition of French culinary savoir-faire.

Saar Indian Bistro - Tandoor Master Chef Hemant Mathur
Michelin-starred Chef Hemant Mathur is one of the nation’s top Tandoor masters. Referred to as the “Yo-Yo Ma of tandoor cooking,” he is a virtuoso whose instrument is the traditional Indian clay oven. The first Indian chef in the United States to be awarded a Michelin star, he obtained this prestigious award at two New York City restaurants: Devi and Tulsi. 

Most recently, in 2015, he became both the Executive Chef and co-owner of six Indian eateries in New York City. He oversaw the kitchen and menus, creating signature dishes and specials inspired by each venue’s regional focus. Saar is the newest and most modern of Chef Mathur’s undertakings.

Barbetta - 115 Years on Restaurant Row - Locale Storico
Barbetta, 115 years on Restaurant Row, is the oldest restaurant in New York that is still owned by the family that founded it. Barbetta is also the oldest Italian restaurant in New York and the oldest restaurant in New York's Theatre District.

This three-fold distinction makes this historic restaurant a landmark among New York restaurants. Its landmark status has been recognized by the prestigious and highly selective Locali Storici d'Italia, which has designated Barbetta a Locale Storico (Historic Establishment), the only restaurant in America to have been so named.

Founded in 1906 by Sebastiano Maioglio, Barbetta is now owned by his daughter, Laura Maioglio.
