Lower School teachers have been thinking together about the goals we set for social studies, in particular the conceptual goals that underlie our projects, trips and written tasks. As much as in literacy or math, we design a program to reflect students’ developmental orientation. We meet them where they are, tapping into their interests and curiosity within the framework of their realm of understanding. For example, we know that the younger child learns through concrete, personal experience – a trip or interview is a springboard for extended learning as your child reflects, questions, draws and writes about an exciting experience, turning it into new and deeper understanding. As the student matures and her worldview broadens, she extracts more and more information from books and symbolic communication, linking this to direct, interactive experience. Eventually, around Third Grade, students are ready to leave what we call the ”here and now” and enter the world of “long ago and far away;” to study those things that cannot be visited directly, tasted or touched. Thanks to the experiential foundation of their earlier years, eight and nine year olds are prepared to appreciate the flow and evolution of history and to conceptualize a timeline leading from then to now.

Where vintage glamour meets modern mixology, this mashup concept launched back in 1995 when someone spotted potential in a forty-year-old beauty parlor and decided to flip the script entirely. The space keeps those iconic chrome-domed hair dryers front and center—relics from the days when blue-haired regulars claimed their favorite stations—but now they frame a scene that blends beauty treatments with craft cocktails. Winter crowds pile in to escape the chill, finding warmth in the quirky collision of salon chair nostalgia and bar culture. The crowd that walks through those doors today is as unpredictable and colorful as the space itself, all drawn to something you genuinely won't find anywhere else.

Stepping through these grand bronze doors, you're entering a structure that took decades to fully realize. The main sanctuary welcomed its first visitors in 1879, though the ambition didn't stop there—Archbishop Michael Corrigan returned in 1888 to crown the West Front with its iconic twin towers, and by 1901 had added the Lady Chapel to the east side, expanding the vision further still. Winter transforms the interior into something particularly serene, with pale light filtering through the renowned stained-glass windows and casting colored patterns across the stone floors. The towering nave feels both more intimate and more majestic during the quieter months. Today, this National Historic Landmark draws visitors from around the world who come to experience the soaring Gothic Revival architecture, intricate mosaic work, and that unmistakable sense of reverence that echoes through the space. Beyond its role as a working parish church, the cathedral stands as a tangible connection to New York's Catholic heritage and continues to inspire those who pass through its doors.

The building depicted above is New York City's third City Hall. Constructed from 1803-1812, it was designed by John McComb, Jr. and Joseph-Francois Mangin. The building has undergone many restorations during its almost two hundred-year history. The original copper roof of City Hall was installed in 1811; it was replaced in 1853, and five years later, due to fire damage, replaced again. Additional work on the roof was undertaken in the early part of this century. Since that time, the last recorded work on the roof was undertaken in 1970, when roof openings were installed to accommodate new air conditioning units.
