NYC’s oldest climbing gym to close after 34 years and be replaced by a $200-an-hour tennis simulator is one of our hand-picked Events finds for New York. The Hell’s Kitchen climbing hub closes September 30, while members fight to save its affordable community space.
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.
