Don’t miss this big banned book wagon pulling up to Brooklyn Public Library next week is one of our hand-picked Events finds for New York. Penguin Random House’s Banned Wagon brings free books to Bushwick, kicking off a week of readings, art and after-hours events.
Why New York? New York is the ultimate dense, 24-hour city — five boroughs of iconic skyline, world culture and neighborhood-deep diversity. The city is known for the skyline and Times Square, Broadway, museums and global food.
Good to know: Spring and autumn are ideal; December dazzles for holidays; summer is hot and humid. The 24-hour subway is the fastest way around; Manhattan and much of Brooklyn are very walkable.
