Ok I must admit that if the stars didn't align the way they did, I would not have made it tithe other night for the Yankee game. But alas, my brother got the field level tickets and I had a craving for some Philly cheesesteaks and ballpark beer, so…More »

Beautiful view of Manhattan and the water. I love to come here during nice weather with my lunch and just sit and appreciate the view. This promenade and this view makes working in downtown Brooklyn worthwhile.

One of my favorite lounges in the city just on looks alone. The place is classic old NY and beautiful. Just sitting at the bar having a drink makes you feel like you went back to a different place in time. I haven't tried any food, but the wine was…More »
