Shopping
Just blocks from the studio. The most beautiful and unique building in the U.S.--and it is also a mall! Just opened in Summer 2016 so many New Yorkers are still discovering it (it took years to build--so some don't know it's open yet). It's also a hub for many train / subway lines--I feel so lucky to start and end each workday walking through this gorgeous space.

Best kept secret in NYC that's used by NYC locals: the Via cell phone app. You request and share a car ride for about $5-10 (no matter the distance) to drive in Manhattan and Brooklyn. You may be asked to meet at a corner rather than exact address. Best after rush hour especially. Lyft, Juno, and Uber are also good.
