Essentials

Best closest place to shop. Lots of organic and specialty items that you'd only expect to find in large supermarkets. But has a nice family-owned vibe and the prices are good. Highly recommend!

Arts & Culture

The museum and sculpture garden are where Noguchi had his studio. The man was a design genius as well as a master in planning. First Monday of the month is free. One of my favorite museums in all of NYC.
