Tucked into Manhattan's Upper West Side, this wine destination has been curating exceptional bottles and spirits since the early 90s. Step inside during winter and you'll find a warm refuge lined with over 5,000 selections spanning every corner of the wine world—the kind of place regulars return to again and again, even when the streets outside are icy and quiet. The team here genuinely enjoys talking through what you're after, whether you're a seasoned collector or hunting for something special for a dinner party. They ship nationwide with some regional exceptions: Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, New Jersey, and Texas fall outside their delivery area. Anyone looking to order online can browse beaconwine.com. A quick note: they card everyone purchasing alcohol, keeping that policy firm across the board.

Legendary restaurateur Artie Cutler's (of Carmine's, Docks, Ollie's, Virgils, Gabriela's, Jake's, Columbia Bagel's) last project was to build a great 1930s New York Jewish delicatessen. When Artie passed away his wife Alice and her brother Carl joined Jeffrey Bank and Chris Metz to finish this project. To rediscover and recreate the flavors of 1930s homestyle Jewish cooking, Jeffrey and Chris tried hundreds of heirloom recipes and talked with people who lived through the era. <br> The research paid off. Artie's Delicatessen, which opened October 1999 as a tribute to Artie, heralds the comeback of a heritage almost lost. Overflowing with hanging salamis, house cured corned beef, pastrami made from a secret recipe and other traditional deli meats, it is a nosher's wonderland. And Artie's hand made hot dogs and knishes from the grill are not to be missed. Yet Artie's wine list is contemporary; the service staff is young and knowledgeable and the music up-beat and hip.

Tucked into Lincoln Center on the Upper West Side rather than the hustle of Times Square, this Manhattan venue at 150 W. 65th Street pushes back against traditional theater design. Eero Saarinen's Finnish-American vision shaped the space with an amphitheater layout and thrust stage that break the mold of classic Broadway houses. Two distinct performance spaces operate here: the main hall holds just over a thousand patrons, while the intimate companion room fits under three hundred. Winter visits offer a particularly special experience, with the surrounding plaza dressed in seasonal light and the theaters providing a warm cultural refuge during the colder months. The venue qualifies for Tony recognition despite its unconventional location away from the Theater District, hosting both dramatic productions and larger-scale musicals across its unique architectural footprint.

Walking through Lower Manhattan's quietest corners, you'll find two sprawling reflecting pools set into the exact ground where the Twin Towers rose. Nearly an acre each, these basins hold the continent's most impressive manmade waterfalls, their cascading waters creating a meditative soundscape even on winter's coldest days. The chill air and bare trees somehow intensify the gravity of what you're standing within. Every single name—nearly 3,000 lives lost during the 2001 attacks, plus the six who died in the 1993 bombing—has been etched into bronze edging the pools. Running your fingers along these inscriptions in the winter frost connects you directly to the scale of loss that unfolded here and at the Pentagon, as well as in Shanksville. Michael Arad and Peter Walker's design emerged from over 5,200 submissions worldwide to create something that honors both the civilians and rescue workers whose courage defined that day.

Capoeira Angola, an ancient martial art of African origin, is one of the many cultural weapons used to break the chains of enslavement in Brazil. Played close to the ground, Capoeira Angola combines fluid, dance-like movements with kicks, head butts, tripping sweeps and the appearance of playfulness or vulnerability. Music is played on traditional instruments to accompany the players, to teach the rhythmic heart of the art, and also to mask its power. In the eyes of the enslavers it appeared to be a joking and playful acrobatic dance, but eventually its power was realized and Capoeira was outlawed. Death was the penalty paid by those caught playing Capoeira during the slavery era. For almost 400 years Capoeira Angola was taught and practiced in secret, and only in the 1930's did this African martial art become legal to teach and practice.
