Sweet Treats! Ship This ‘Friends’-Themed Ice Cream From Serendipity in New York City

Kathy A. McDonald New York City’s luxury residential real estate market has everything: the country’s most expensive listing, stunning penthouses, condos rich with amenities, vintage brownstones, contemporary townhomes and chicly updated pieds-a-terre. What it doesn’t have now is certainty. Sales cooled off in the summer (as they always do seasonally) and real estate pros are anticipating an uncertain fall due to rising interest rates and inflation, coupled with recession fears. Despite prevailing macro-economic conditions, prime Manhattan and Brooklyn real estate remains a portfolio must-have for industry talent and power players, while up-and-comers and below-the-line buyers venture further out to red-hot Brooklyn neighborhoods like Bushwick and Bay Ridge, and outer Queens (not Staten Island just yet).

Gregg Goldstein No one ever said filming in New York City was easy, especially during a pandemic. Just ask the showrunners behind Amazon’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” or the producer of Steven Soderbergh’s upcoming HBO Max limited series “Full Circle.” “We had an incident yesterday on our set in Queens: a crazy person grabbed a grip by the hair and was trying to take a swing at her. Thank God she got away and he ran off,” “Circle” producer Jonathan Filley said in late September. “And we just had a car rear-end another car, which ran into our electric truck. … There’s a lot of mental instability in the city these days.” This wouldn’t be a shock to “Maisel” creator Amy Sherman-Palladino or her fellow showrunner, Daniel Palladino. who had a hazardous Washington Square Park shoot in spring 2021. “There had been a lot of anti-police protests, and weirdos were encroaching on our set,” Palladino says. “There were no police, and we finally bolted. We had our own security, but there was a group of film students who were keeping an eye on us.” (“And our purses!” Sherman-Palladino chimes in.) “They were chasing some people off, and we realized our de facto security was a bunch of 18-year-olds at NYU.”

we pay a flippin’ fortune to be stuck inside a dingy remake of “Death Wish” that’s actually far freakier than most of the camp antics “AHS” creator Ryan Murphy has ever dreamt up.Jessica Lange as a mental patient singing “The Name Game”; Kathy Bates chewing scenery as the severed head of a New Orleans witch; Sarah Paulson shrieking on election night 2016 as she watches the news — cute, fun, silly.Compared to previous seasons “Asylum” and “Coven,” New York is a hellhole — five boroughs in the nine circles where major crime has soared 36% and one rotting onion costs $2 while an ever-present haze of pot smoke hovers like graveyard fog on “Scooby Doo.” Our city is awash in actual, palpable dread and tourists are afraid to come here. We should change the famous lyric to “Start spreading the mace!” Indeed, there’s enough material in our foul city for an entire “AHS” spin-off series. Random subway shovings have become so common that the city is planning to install plastic dividers on some platforms, and the uptick in underground incidents has spurred Gov.
