The sounds of (or from) New York

Any of my readers who either know me personally or are in Pierce at 1 on Thursdays know that my other main contribution to the media at Stevens is a radio show.

Tips for the auto show and the road

One of my favorite annual events is happening right now in the city: The New York Auto Show. Going from April 14-23, it’s about the only time I can meet with a bunch of motor heads/road addicts/whatever you want to call us in a city that’s increasingly notorious for its difficult driving conditions and high cost of car ownership.

I’ll be celebrating my birthday a few days after this piece is published. For some reason, I seem to frequently celebrate my birthday with Chinese food, so I figured I’d write about a rather unique place in Chinatown I found out about nearly a decade ago (yikes, I feel so old!).

New York: a wet dream

In honor of the third Hoboken water main break of the year, I’m going to write about an odd and underappreciated benefit of New York: the water.

Crossing the Hudson

I suspect most of my readers know the typical ups and downs of the different ways of getting from Hoboken to the city.

Ye olde ice cream shoppe

Hiraeth

I’ve been living under a rock for roughly the past year and half; so, I recently found out that Donald Trump decided that he wasn’t hated enough as a New York City landlord, so he decided to run for President of the United States and, upon entering office, temporarily suspend immigration from several countries.

The great river

It’s time for a recommendation that’s certainly unique to New York, yet not touristy. Actually, it’ll be beyond “not touristy;” it’s so underappreciated that most of my close friends don’t even go there.
