Subject: Personal Note from Seasonal Italian Spot Alta Linea
Hey, we’re open again. Same spot in the front courtyard of the High Line Hotel. Still got Negroni
slushies. Got that Dell’anima and Mission Cantina vet in the kitchen making fried salsa-verde-topped
artichokes and ribeye cheeseburgers. Aw, stop. We’ve missed you, too.
Thursday
THE POP-UPS
Ponchos from Architects, Loafers from Naples
“God, That’s a Nice Poncho”: The creatives and architects behind the Arrivals and
Snarkitecture collaborated on this sleek new concept store. And the limited-edition, much-needed ponchos
inside. “Just Look at Your Loafers”: Shoe startup Founders will be posted up in the Wythe Hotel
with a plethora of handsome boots, oxfords and loafers, all handcrafted in Naples.
Saturday
THE DERBY PARTIES
The Best Horse-Watching Situations
A classic Derby party at Saxon + Parole: It’s where all the large hats, seafood towers,
live bluegrass, legal betting for prizes and mint julep stations will be hanging out. A less-classic rooftop party at the Roof: Wherein you eat chicken-fried oysters and
experience a Southern jazz DJ. Totally new kind of DJ.
THE WILD CARD
It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s LED-Outfitted Pigeons
Have you ever just taken a trip to the Brooklyn Navy Yard at dusk to see the sunset? And then stayed to
watch thousands of LED-outfitted pigeons soaring into the night sky like so many magical shooting stars but
really they’re LED-outfitted pigeons? Us either. Let’s try it.
What Else Is New
AND NOW...
The Eataly Rooftop: Is It the Italian Alps?
It’s been transformed into a beachy Italian Alps–themed seafood spot. If you’re wondering if there’s
an oyster bar shaped as a precious little boat, a design-your-own-drink on a roving spritz cart,
large-format cucumber-prosecco drinks and a notably large fritto misto platter, the answer is yes. Yes on
all accounts.
