Went to The Armory in NYC for Nike Nationals and overall the experience was amazing. Watching these…read moreyoung athletes compete at such a high level was really impressive. One of the best parts of the event was how they introduced the elite runners. They turned the lights off in the arena, announced each athlete individually, and they ran out onto the track with sparks shooting up. That whole presentation was fire and really made the moment feel special for the athletes and the crowd. The atmosphere was great and you could feel the excitement in the building. My only complaint is about some of the staff (not all). I had been sitting in a section for over four hours after being told by one worker that it was fine to sit there. Later on, a few other workers came over and told me I had to move. It wasn't even the request that bothered me--it was the way it was delivered. When you're dealing with adults, especially paying guests who've been there for hours, it's all about how you communicate. At one point it felt like they were all teaming up like Voltron instead of just getting a supervisor to clear things up. Situations like that can easily be avoided with better customer service and communication. Needless to say I didn't go anywhere until my daughter ran off the principal. Aside from that situation, the event itself was great. The competition, the energy in the building, and the way they highlight the elite athletes made it a really memorable experience.

The warmup area is way too small, so from the athlete's perspective, that made it very hard to prepare for the race. I ended up running laps outside with my athlete to get her warmed up, which many others were doing, so even that was hard. I get space is limited in NYC, but with 3 floors, they could have done a better job providing space for the athletes to prepare for their race. My runner lived the track itself, it was a great track.

Each night, there are BBQ, Mexican, and Italian stations, including pasta with different sauces. You'll also find Italian cured meats and cheeses, and some nights there's pastrami and corned beef. All of this is upstairs, where there's also dining-room seating. Downstairs, you'll find the same great options, plus classic ballpark food like hamburgers, sausages, and hot dogs. It's an experience worth having. If you get the opportunity and have some extra money, go for it!

A little courtesy goes a long way, and first impressions matter. If interacting with customers is such an inconvenience, maybe customer service isn't the right career. No one expects a red carpet, but basic professionalism shouldn't be too much to ask. It takes less effort to be polite than it does to have an attitude. Businesses spend thousands trying to attract new customers, only for one rude employee to send them walking right back out the door. A bad first impression is hard to forget

I stopped by on a weekday around 3:00-4:00 p.m., right as happy hour was starting. According to their website, happy hour runs from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The main reason I came was for their frozen rosé, which I remembered being one of the best. It's definitely more of a sweet, refreshing drink than a strong one, but it still gives you a nice buzz. I was even willing to pay full price for it. I literally paid for an Uber just because I was craving that frozen drink. The first thing I noticed was that, despite it being broad daylight, there was a security guard at the door checking IDs and searching bags. That's their policy, and that's fine, but what really stood out was the condition of the entrance. The front door was cracked and held together with duct tape. It seemed odd to be so focused on security while basic maintenance appeared to be neglected. When I walked in, I was only the second customer in the entire bar besides the bartender. Unfortunately, I found out the frozen drink machines have been broken for months, so there were no frozen drinks available at all. The bartender mentioned that she has repeatedly told management the machines need to be repaired, but nothing has been done. Since that was the only reason I came, and nothing else on the menu really caught my interest, I decided not to stay. This place has changed dramatically since the COVID era. The atmosphere feels completely different. One of the things I used to enjoy was their hookah happy hour, which was around $25 with refills for about $10-$15, and they had a great selection of flavors. From what I've heard, they no longer offer hookah, and it sounds like they may not have had the proper license back then, which is concerning if true. Another thing I miss is the outdoor seating area they had during COVID. The indoor space is pretty small, but the outdoor setup made the bar feel much larger and created a much better atmosphere. It's disappointing that they didn't keep it because I think it really added to the experience and probably helped attract more customers. Sorry I didn't take any photos, but honestly, there wasn't much worth photographing. The interior hasn't really changed, so the existing photos online are still an accurate representation of what it looks like still.

Founded by Albert Maysles, the late extraordinary filmmaker (e.g., Grey Gardens, Gimme Shelter, Salemen, Iris, films of Christo and Jeane-Claude's art projects) the Center is a rare gem uptown providing both a great venue to see an incredible selection of films uptown and resources for underrepresented voices. First, Maysles Cinema's eclectic film calendar includes U.S. and international documentaries and select narratives, recent and from the last century, that sharply contrast with mainstream fare and provide thought-provoking Points of View. You'll also find there screenings for different film festivals. As matter of fact, I just watched a fantastic doc part of the ReelAbilities Film Festival. If you're a cinephile or just interested in a change of pace, Maysles Cinema is worth checking out and, if you don't live in the neighborhood, making the trip uptown! Second, Maysles Documentary Center presently organizes several free programs that provide training, resources, and experience to teen and young adult aspiring filmmakers. What an amazing mission! Kudos, MDC!

Barnard is situated across from Columbia and both campuses look like a shrine to academia. You can physicaly see the ivy growing up the sides of the walls, and you feel like you are automatically smarter for being physically present here. The faculty and staff were so helpful in developing my skills. I was here about 16 years ago and although I lived in NYC for a good chunk of my adult life, I no longer live in the city. But I sure make a point of walking through the campus to feel the nostalgia. (And then over to St. John the Divine to watch the peacocks, perhaps as I eat some pastries from the Hungarian pastry shop.) Thank you for being an essential part of my career, Barnard. I loved the doors you opened, and the path you created for me to my career in NYC!
