It is also the name of the entity which owns the arena and several of the professional sports franchises which play there. There have been four incarnations of the arena. The first two were located at Madison Square, thus the name. Subsequently a new 17,000-seat Garden (opened December 15, 1925) was built at 50th Street and 8th Avenue, and the current Garden (opened February 14, 1968) is at 7th Avenue between 31st and 33rd Streets, situated on top of Pennsylvania Station. The present arena is informally known to some by the advertising slogan "The World's Most Famous Arena". <a href="http://www.wikipedia.org" target="new">Source</a>

Noted for its quality materials, use of color, and elegant and femininine designs, Escada successfully widened its clientele and by 1981 established a name in many categories of womenswear, specializing in formal wear and knitwear. In 1982, the company opened their first store in the United States on Fifth Avenue in New York City and opened its first store in Asia the following year in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong boutique became a worldwide landmark, marked for its use of gold in the store's design. <br> Though debuting in America in 1982, Escada did not gain national prominence until 1984 when the leading fashion and women's wear magazine Vogue published an entire edition devoted to promoting Escada. Its worldwide prominence led its 1986 IPO on the FSE to be highly anticipated and Escada's debut on the stock exchange marked the headlines in hundreds of major newspapers worldwide. 30 years later, Escada has established itself as one of the largest fashion houses in the world. Escada?s headquarters are based in Munich, Germany and Escada?s collections are available in nearly 500 locations in 60 countries. In the United States, the company has 16 boutiques in Arizona, California, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nevada, New York, Texas, and Washington. Escada has opened several larger stores carrying various fashion lines including Escada, Escada Sport, and Couture and Accessories. The largest of these stores is located in Vancouver, Canada, and is 16,000 square feet. <br> Like many fashion houses, Escada also has a line of fragrances for both women and men. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org" target="new">Source</a>

The moment those doors swing open, you're stepping into a space where the energy crackles—especially on those crisp winter evenings when the warmth inside feels like an embrace. Grab a cocktail crafted with care, order something from the kitchen, and settle in for live music that fills every corner of the room. You'll be inches away from the stage where legends have actually stood and played. This Manhattan institution has hosted everyone from Tony Bennett to Ray Charles, Oscar Peterson to Natalie Cole, Sarah Vaughan to Dizzy Gillespie. The place carries the weight of that history in the best way—it's a room where jazz, blues, latin, Brazilian, fusion, R&B, soul, and contemporary acts all find their moment under the lights. What started as a jazz destination has grown into something broader. Any given night might bring you face to face with world-class performers across multiple genres, all in an intimate setting where you can actually feel the music rather than just hear it.

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.

The first time Eddie Murphy came into the club, he was only 18 and had a little too much attitude. A few days later, he apologized and we gave him a shot. Saturday Night Live soon followed and the rest is show biz history. Eddie in turn discovered Chris Rock at The Comic Strip one night. Rolling Stone magazine recently described Rock's career as "ballistic." Like so many acts, television Superstar Jerry Seinfeld worked for many years at the Comic Strip. Everybody called Seinfeld "Doctor Comedy" because there wasn't a bit Jerry couldn't fix. Paul Reiser was asked by a fellow Comic Strip performer to accompany him to a film audition. The Director asked Paul if he wanted to read for the part as well. He did and got the part! That film was "Diner" and it launched Paul's illustrious career.
