My Weekend “Away” In New York At The Kimberly Hotel

Tuesday, February 10, 2015

If there’s one thing New York City does really well, it’s eschewing the cookie-cutter chains that dot much of the American landscape, especially when it comes to hotels (okay, maybe not banks and certain coffee shops, but that’s another story).

New Year’s Eve + Timelapse Video + Times Square = The Best Travel Video Of 2014 So Far

Tuesday, January 7, 2014

Where were you on New Year’s Eve? I’m going to guess you probably weren’t hanging around the tops of a couple New York city skyscrapers in Times Square with enough expensive camera equipment in tow to finance the purchase of a small home in Boca Raton.

Getting Gritty In New York’s Chinatown: A Tour In Black And White

Monday, November 4, 2013

I recently picked up an old film camera and thought it would have been the perfect platform to capture the sights and people in New York City’s Chinatown. The gritty streets, cluttered shops and graffiti were effectively emphasized through the medium of black and white film. It was late in the afternoon during a muggy […]

This video, from Brian of Sunset District Pictures, takes a look at New York through one second snippets of footage (reduced down […]

Watch As Omar From “The Wire” Runs Into Rival Gang Member With Bourdain [Video]

Friday, October 19, 2012

In the recently aired series finale of No Reservations, Tony, while exploring Brooklyn, had the awesomely crazy coincidence of eating a Caribbean meal with Brooklyn native Michael K. Williams (or Omar as he’s better known from The Wire) in Crown Heights when, who should show up, but Jamie Hector, the actor who played Marlo Stanfield, […]

Tuesday, July 17, 2012

Just in case you were one of the 50.6 million visitors to New York City last year, and you happen to be a germaphobe (or have a healthy aversion to the sudden onset of stomach ailments), you may want to think twice about not washing your hands after using a local taxi. New York magazine […]
