The 8 Best Shopping in Gramercy Park, New York (NY)
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

The park is divided by Second Avenue making for two parks. One side faces St. George’s which is the church where JP Morgan worshiped along with other Knickerbocker families. During the Spring and Summer the gardens are replete with colors of seasonal flowers and a fountain in the middle. Across the street the park faces Beth Israel hospital and makes for a great place for visitors seeking a place to escape their obligations at the hospital. Both sides have benches where to sit and enjoy.

Fotografiska uses the power of photography to inspire a more conscious world. For over 10 years, the museum has been an internationally-renowned destination for photography in Stockholm. Now, Fotografiska has opened its newest museum in a historic landmark building located in NYC’s Flatiron District. Fotografiska New York presents powerful and unparalleled exhibitions showcasing some of the world’s best photographers. Genres range from abstract, landscape, portrait, documentary, and more with themes that are relevant, inclusive, and representative of ever-changing current issues and ongoing movements. The museum also has vibrant cultural event programs and retail at The Shop with unique local and international items inspired by the art of photography. With extra touches like being open late until 9pm, live music and DJs on select nights, new inspiring exhibitions, and timed entry with limited capacity, Fotografiska is anything but an ordinary New York museum.

What should we say? Just an amazing place full of creativity, pure artistry, our impression was that of a sparkle and a breath of fresh air on the already versatile NYC art scene. Thanks to a friend living in Stockholm and interested in photography, we have already heard about the noble initiative of brothers Jan and Per Broman whop created - with zero of government funds - two photography centers, in Stockholm, and across the Baltic Sea, in Tallinn, the capital of Estonia. Prime location, on the corner of Park Ave and 22nd St. There is a store carrying books, albums, and monographs dedicated to everything photography. The store is located on the ground floor, and so is the cafeteria catering for coffee and lighter foods. For more substantial meals, head to restaurant Verōnika, located on the 2nd floor and is currently open for dinner only. Verōnika is supposed to start serving lunches soon. Please note, that Verōnika reservations are made via Resy, and not OpenTable. We are not sure why, but Verōnika's menu features predominantly not a Noric menu, as would be expected from a Swedish establishment, but East-European, or even Russian staples such as Pierogi, Herring Under a Fur Coat, Borscht, Coulibiac, and Chicken Kiev, among its other more universally familiar European specialties. 6 floors, each of which can be accessed either via a very spacious elevator or by taking a staircase. Each floor is dedicated to a separate photo exhibition, sometimes featuring one or two artists. The inner design, the signage and especially the lighting are all on top professional level. At the time of our visit, on February 29th, there were about five expositions on view, among them "Ellen von Unwerth Devotion! 30 Years of Photographing Women" (until March 29) , "Anastasia Taylor Lind Fotografiska For Life X TIME" (until March 8), "Tawny Chatmon Inheritance" (until March 22), "Helene Schmitz Thinking Like a (until April 12th), and "Adi Nes Testaments" (until March 1st). As much as the artists represented are different, coming from different countries and working in different genres, the unifying threadline is the great selection, exquisite taste, thought-provoking art and uninhibited creativity. Lot of success to Fotografiska NYC! We can't wait to visit again.
