An affordable housing lottery just opened on the Upper West Side near Central Park
Many people dream of living on the Upper West Side with its leafy streets and incredible mom-and-pop shops, but for some of us, sales prices have made it impossible. But thanks to a new housing lottery that just opened, that dream seems more within reach. Here’s what you need to...
A pawsitively adorable exhibit about NYC's pets is coming to New-York Historical Society
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.
Darryl McDaniels of Run-DMC is launching a new line of cookies in Queens
Hip-hop legend Darryl "DMC" McDaniels—co-founder of the iconic Queens group Run DMC—is making his way back to the borough—this time launching his very own cookie brand, the aptly named Darryl Makes Cookies. The now 60-year-old rapper will show up at the Queens Night Market on July 20...
AMNH is throwing a big bash for the last Manhattanhenge of 2024
New Yorkers have had a complicated relationship with the sun this summer. Yes, we need the sun for life, but she's been extra fiery this year—overwhelming bridges, delaying trains and turning us all into sticky shells of ourselves. The city practically audibly exhales when the massive star dips beyond the horizon.
A stretch of Madison Avenue is transforming into mini France this weekend
Bastille Day—the date of the storming of the Bastille in 1789, effectively the national day of France—is happening this weekend on July 14 and, although there are a few ways to celebrate from the comfort of your New York abode, a particular schedule of events taking over Madison Avenue from 59th Street to 63rd Street sounds like the very best time to be had.
Foo Fighters at Citi Field: everything you need to know for the NYC show
The Foo Fighters are back in New York for their “Everything or Nothing At All” tour. This will be their second summer in a row of touring, which last year was in the wake of their 11th album But Here We Are. The Citi Field baseball stadium will house this legendary band whose members consist of Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear, Rami Jaffee, and Josh Freese. The rock group will take to the stage this July and play their alternative grunge hearts out.
Tornadoes might hit New York today
In case you forgot that we literally lived through an earthquake in New York City earlier this year, Mother Nature is here to remind us of our mortality again by unleashing yet another apocalyptic event on us all. Starting this evening and continuing throughout the night, New York and surrounding...
Ladies and gentlemen, behold NYC’s first official trash bin!

This neighborhood is home to NYC's youngest residents
Ever wonder what neighborhood New Yorkers your age call home?. The Department of City Planning has just revamped its interactive Population FactFinder app to include 2020 Census data, offering one of the most up-to-date looks at the city's demographics. You can play around with the tool right here, zooming into...
You will soon be able to take a driverless shuttle around JFK Airport
The city’s biggest airport is innovating its transport system, but not in the way you think—on the ground. John F. Kennedy International Airport is about to incorporate two self-driving shuttles into its transit repertoire. For now, these futuristic shuttles will only be found in the airport’s Lot 9,...
Wimbledon tennis screenings in NYC: where to catch the tournament
While waiting for the U.S. Open to take over Queens by the end of the summer, tennis aficionados get to satisfy their craving for the sport by watching Wimbledon, the oldest tennis tournament in the world and one of the four major Grand Slams (our own U.S. Open rounds out that list alongside the Australian Open and the French Open).
Take a look at the recently renovated Jones Beach Theater
Catching a show at Northwell at Jones Beach Theater might actually be one of the very best things to do in New York during the summer. There is just something about the venue—whether it be the view of the water, the welcome breeze while you're rocking out to your favorite band or the relative intimacy of the arena—that always makes for a memorable concert.
One of Manhattan’s most popular ice cream spots is coming to Greenpoint this week
While Hallie Meyer (the daughter of restaurateur Danny Meyer) grew up in Gramercy, it seems she found her calling in Rome. With a love for all things ice cream, Meyer spent five months living in Rome, working her way through kitchens and gelaterias across the capital city. When she returned to NYC, she brought her love of gelato with her, opening Caffè Panna in 2019. New Yorkers quickly caught on, and even to this day, lines remain out the door for just a taste of her Italian-inspired ice cream. Finally, Brooklyn can get in on the action as the shop is coming to Brooklyn.
Here are ten mesmerizing photos of the July 4th fireworks in NYC
Every year, the Macy's Fourth of July fireworks show is a testament to the city's ability to do everything bigger and better than the rest of the country. And this year, the show felt extra special. For the first time in several years, in fact, the fireworks were launched along...
Here’s when NYC will see a reprieve from its current heat wave
We're almost too hot to type: New Yorkers are officially dealing with the second heat wave of the summer—and it's only the beginning of July. As of now, although temperatures are in the 90s, it actually feels like over 100 degrees outside, so forgive us for sounding sluggish and half-asleep. Walking the streets of New York is equivalent to taking a stroll inside a massive sauna filled with thick air. Not to mention the smell.
The iconic Papaya King has reopened on the Upper East Side!
It's hot dog week here at Time Out New York, so it is only fitting for this news to drop now: the beloved, iconic, uber-popular and downright delicious Papaya King has officially reopened on the Upper East Side at 206 East 86 Street by Third Avenue, right across the street from the brand's original address, which shuttered to much dismay after the owners of the building filed plans to demolish it.
A first look at Diner24, NYC’s newest 24-hour restaurant and bar
New York City's reputation as the city that never sleeps has waned in recent years, but a new 24/7 diner is seeking to breathe new life into the epithet we’re so proud of. Gramercy's new Diner24, which opened in May, is hoping to make it as one of these "open-late" spots despite a still-recovering economy and a city not yet fully back to its pre-pandemic self.
Crif Dogs is giving away free hot dogs this July and we couldn’t be happier
Hot Dog summer is here. While my love of hot dogs is an all-year affair, summer is when it hits an all-time high. And clearly, I’m not the only one. In New York alone, we have over 4,000 hot dog stands, hot dog races at the Brooklyn Cyclones are built into each game and Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest is as traditional as the 4th of July fireworks. Heck, here at Time Out, we celebrated the power of the tube-shaped meat for our first-ever Hot Dog Week. Lucky for us, Crif Dogs (113 St. Marks Place) knows what’s up, and is giving us a killer deal to feed our habit.
Citi Bike prices are going up next week for e-bikes
For many of us, Citi Bikes are the best way to get around in the summer. Depending on where you live, the bikes will likely be faster than a train and cheaper than an Uber. But if you're a loyal Citi Bike rider, then you've probably also noticed that the prices have been going up for the past few years—and we're just about to witness a second annual hike.
