Adams has NYPD playing whack-a-mole as crime drops in subway, rises on the street
Mayor Adams was rightly bragging last week that subway crime is down. But New Yorkers, just as rightly, couldn’t get too excited: Above ground, core Manhattan below Central Park is having a bloody summer. The juxtaposition illustrates how New York’s public-safety resources are stretched thin, something Adams has never...

How to take the corporate picnic (or all-day meeting) to the next level
Up the ante at your on-site lunch or annual office barbecue with these tantalizing corporate catering options in the metropolitan area — because lackluster buns with a squirt of mayo and week-old lettuce won’t exactly raise morale. More than just breakfast. The Granola Bar’s flagship opened in Westport,...

It’s last call for iconic Midtown bar Neary’s
Neary’s, the wonderful pub that Jimmy Neary launched at 348 E. 57th St. in 1967, closed its doors on Friday for the last time. Not surprisingly, it’s been called the end of an era. But while I’m sad to lose Neary’s fabled Irish coffee and lamb chops, I couldn’t care less about the era.
Billy Joel on the 'magic' and 'crazy crowds' of Madison Square Garden ahead of final show
In March, Billy Joel played the 100th show of a residency that began in January 2014. His feeling a decade ago was, I’ll keep showing up every month or so as long as the demand continues. Demand responded. Mightily. For more than 10 years – excepting the inevitable COVID...
Foo Fighters Make Up for Weather-Shortened Set With High-Energy, Jam-Heavy New York Show
Foo Fighters opened their Friday night encore at Citi Field in Queens with the penultimate track from their most recent album, the 10-minute plus “The Teacher.” The song is a bit of an outlier for the group, with frontman Dave Grohl favoring a Gibson double neck for the proggy journey. While the song is dedicated to both his late mother (a teacher) and late former Foos drummer Taylor Hawkins, the title could easily apply to Grohl’s current approach to live shows: A rock ‘n’ roll professor sharing everything he knows about the craft in one blowout three-hour class.

Meet the American who popularized Latin music, Tito Puente, World War II Navy veteran and kamikaze survivor
