Barclays Center has been a hub for all things music and entertainment since 2012. The 670,000-seater arena has been graced with the likes of Beyoncé and Madonna and serves as a home base for the Brooklyn Nets and the New York Liberty. And while many arenas are adept at providing entertainment and lacking in the food section, the eateries at Barclays bring it home. Through its Brooklyn Taste program—a culinary initiative that integrates local, community-based businesses in the arena—Barclays mirrors the melting pot of the borough, featuring shredded birria tacos, pulled pork sammies and hickory-smoked jerk chicken. So in between cheering on your team (or jeering at your rivals), remember to cruise the food options for some hometown favorites.

Like New Yorkers flocking to patio bars to slurp Aperol spritzes, elephants visit watering holes not just to hydrate but to socialize as well. Also like humans, older members of the herd share knowledge with their offspring. Elephants recognize each other’s voices, grow attached to one another and mourn lost loved ones. They embrace their wrinkles—a lesson we would be wise to adopt.

From sports to the stage, it's a big summer for elephants in NYC

This legendary NYC pizza shop is reportedly opening its first new location in over 80 years

Step outside any New York City skyscraper in the heart of Manhattan during the peak of rush-hour traffic, and you will find very loyal corporate-employee owners walking their chihuahuas and great danes across city blocks. Occasionally, on a sunny day in Central Park, you may find a cat in a harness, a bunny sitting peacefully upon somebody’s lap, or a man with 20 leashes around his wrist strolling casually by.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
