Battery Park is full of people trying to SCAM YOU out of an amazing Statue of Liberty Experience. The people standing around Battery Park with vests and jackets that look like official ticket sales people are NOT AUTHORIZED BY THE STATUE OF LIBERTY! Only statuecitycruises.com and Castle Clinton Guarantee you access to Liberty Island. Many of these “vests” are selling tickets to a boat that departs from MIDTOWN. You will be put onto a bus that takes you to midtown. You will then wait in a ferry terminal for a boat that goes NEAR the Statue but DOES NOT STOP AT THE ISLAND. It is also MORE EXPENSIVE than the Statue of Liberty boat. These “vests” can be intimidating ans threatening and will say lots of things to misdirect you. DO NOT BE FOOLED! #statueofliberty #nyc #nyctourist #batterypark #nycguide

@Empire Steak House has three locations in NYC. We went to the Midtown East location at 151 East 50th street at the Kimberly Hotel . The restaurant is located in an old historic theatre where Edith Piaf once performed! The bathrooms are where the dressing rooms used to be! We were heaven - good food and history as well as a friendly staff! #steakhouse #empiresteakhouse #nycrestaurants #nyceats #nycfood #nycguide #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #fypnyc

Got to see the final preview of @lempickamusical on Broadway, and it was fascinating. It’s inspired by the life of Tamara de Lempicka, a painter who survived through quite a lot of huge historical events. I’ve been obsessed with researching some of the characters portrayed, especially Marinetti. Something tells me his desire to get rid of all museums and libraries means we wouldn’t be friends…but I’m obsessed with learning more. David said this reel is a basically a love letter to George Abud who plays Marinetti And it probably is, because I was just soooooo blown away by his performance. Going to be honest and say this music is definitely for a *specific audience*, and if you ARE that specific audience, you will love it. Go in knowing it’s historical fiction, and not expecting a documentary. Lots of historical liberties were taken. Full disclosure, we have a friend in it so I saw it twice, once from the mezzanine and once from third row. It was light years better up close where you can truly appreciate the performances, so I suggest getting the close seats for this one. Poll: Have you seen Lempicka? #nyctheatre #nyctheater #broadway #broadwaymusical #broadwaymusicals #lempicka #fyp

Was literally researching something else entirely yesterday when I discovered there was a secret time capsule in Times Square and immediately had to make a video! Did you know about this!?! #nychistory #newyorkhistory #nyctour #nyctours #nycguide #timessquare #history #historian #tourguide
