Open House New York: The Doors I'm Trying to Get Through (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I've been telling people for years that my dream Open House New York moment is climbing the arch at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn. I even said it in an interview this summer, like it was a foregone conclusion I'd get there eventually. I went looking for it on the newly announced 2026 lineup and it's nowhere to be found. So that dream is on hold. At least for now.For anyone not familiar, Open House New York Weekend is three days (October 16-18 this year) where 300+ sites

On Friday night, I was headed to a show at City Winery and decided to walk a few blocks along the West Side Highway on the way. Somewhere around Pier 57, I looked up and saw one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve seen in New York City.

Friends were visiting from out of town, so despite the pouring rain, I trekked up to the Upper East Side to see them for brunch on Sunday. Between mouthfuls of shakshuka, I looked outside and the miserable day had turned completely sunny. I had a lazy Sunday afternoon planned, but it suddenly felt wrong to just get on the subway and go home. I remembered that the Christopher Payne exhibit at Cooper Hewitt was closing soon, so I wandered over by myself. It was definitely worth the detour. I’d als

The last month has been one of the most intensely jam-packed periods of my life. I had four back-to-back weddings, all in different parts of the world, on top of work (no, I do not do this letter full time), travel, and trying to maintain some semblance of normal life. I genuinely wanted to do every single thing I committed to over the last month, but my body is now making it very clear that something has to give. I’m extremely excited to now be staying put in NYC for five full weeks, just in ti
