WHAT TO DO IN TIMES SQUARE AND AROUND MANHATTAN: Madame Tussaud’s 42nd Street between 7th and 8th Avenues madametussauds.com/newyork A little place (museum) where you can meet all of your favorite stars, even if they're all in wax form. Come armed with your camera and pose with everyone from Brittany to Denzel. NBC Experience 49th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues nbc.com Take some time out to tour NBC studios or catch a taping of "Saturday Night Live" or "Dateline NBC" (although you'll have to make reservations well in advance). You can also purchase some of your favorite TV show memorabilia at the building on 49th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues. Rockefeller Center West 49th Street and 5th Avenue rockefellercenter.org Page 3 of 10 Travel eGuide for MMA Senior Field Trip 2020 ` In the winter, you can ice skate with all of the other throngs of people. In the summer, you can enjoy outdoor dining, a stop at the Museum of Modern Art store or a sandwich from the legendary Dean & Deluca. If you're particularly adventurous, ride all the way to the "Top of the Rock" to enjoy breathtaking views of the city (although it'll set you back about $15 per person) Bryant Park, “Le Carrousel” Park bounded by 40th and 42nd Streets, 5th and 6th Avenues bryantpark.org Are you bringing children to see a show? It's not always easy to keep them amused before and afterwards without spending megabucks, but here's one attraction that's guaranteed to please the young (and the young at heart). “Le Carrousel,” as it is called, operates daily in the spring, summer, and fall from 11:30am to 7:00pm, and the price of a ride is a very affordable $2.00. Bryant Park is also notable for stately trees, a large expanse of lawn, a cafe, a restaurant, and a lovely fountain. Toys ‘R’ Us, Ferris Wheel Broadway at 44th Street toysrustimessquare.com After you've enjoyed your visit to Bryant Park and a spin on “Le Carrousel,” walk a few blocks northwest to Toys ‘R’ Us for another fun ride. The indoor Ferris wheel here is 60 feet tall, and it's quite a sight to see. Music plays and neon lights sparkle as you go round and round for a mere $4.00 per ride. The Salvation Army Thrift Store – Hell's Kitchen 536 West 46th Street, between 10th and 11th Avenues satruck.com This is one of the Salvation Army's largest thrift stores. Occupying several different floors, it offers great second-hand deals on women’s clothing, men’s clothing, furniture, housewares, etc. Take a good look through each floor, especially the third, where you'll find furnishings. Recently, they had a lot of pianos and huge couches, plus some terrific retro lamps. Another man’s trash can be your home’s new conversation piece. The store is not open on Sunday, because this is the Salvation Army, but it is open Monday through Saturday, 9:00am to 5:30pm. So follow the fold and stray no more! St. Malachy’s Church, a.k.a. “The Actors' Chapel” 239 West 49th Street, between Broadway and 8th Avenue actorschapel.org Open daily from 7:30am until at least 8:00pm and sometimes later, the chapel is a lovely respite from the bustle of the surrounding neighborhood. Douglas Fairbanks and Joan Crawford were married here. Jimmy Durante and Don Ameche, among other notables, served Mass in the chapel, and many an actor, producer, and musician has lit a candle here for good luck on opening night. The bells of the church play “There’s No Business Like Show Business” every Wednesday and Sunday at 3:00pm for the Broadway matinees, and every Friday and Saturday at 8:00pm for the evening performances. Now, that's community spirit! Suggestion: This would be the perfect place to visit before seeing the long-running Off-Broadway hit Altar Boyz, which is playing just one block away at New World Stages. Page 4 of 10 Travel eGuide for MMA Senior Field Trip 2020 ` The Diamond District West 47th Street, between 6th and 7th Avenues diamonddistrict.org Here is home to some of the most extraordinary gems on earth. Both sides of the street are lined with stores and stalls. So many incredible rings, necklaces, and earrings are displayed in the street-level windows that there is no need to actually enter a single store, unless you are in the market to buy. More than three quarters of all diamonds entering the United States come through New York City, and this is the place to get your bling on. Remember, diamonds are a girl's best friend! If you are buying, decide in advance what you want to pay, and be prepared to bargain.

The Windemere is a landmarked building on the southwest corner of Ninth Avenue and West 57th Street. The restoration work includes cleaning and repairing the original cast iron columns, restoring brickwork, adding wood cornices, new glass and wood bay windows and doors to match the originals. At its December 2, 2020, regularly scheduled full board meeting, MCB4 with 38 in favor, 0 opposed, 0 abstaining, and 0 present but not eligible, voted to commend the meticulous restoration work undertaken by Mr. Faks’ team and to recommend approval of the proposed historic restoration work on the storefronts. The Board finds restoring the stairs to the cellar and railing on the Ninth Avenue sidewalk is not called for as both features were removed before the building was landmarked and restoring them would create unacceptable obstacles to current pedestrian traffic.

    Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-2ND QUARTER 2019 PLUS AN OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT Pictured: 315 Meserole Street Looking Ahead U.S. Treasury Releases Additional Opportunity Zones Guidelines On April 17th the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued a highly anticipated second set of proposed regulations related to the new Opportunity Zone (OZ) tax incentive. Created by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the tax benefi t is designed to drive economic development and create jobs by encouraging long-term investments in economically distressed communities nationwide according to the Treasury department’s press release. The latest 169-page release reportedly delivered guidance in a broader range of areas than many expected, hoping to provide investors who have been on the fence with the clarity needed to begin developing projects in distressed areas nationwide. Some government offi cials anticipate the program could spur $100 billion in new investment into the more than 8,762 zones nationwide, of which 306 are located in New York City; however there exist some concerns among critics that the program will incentivize gentrifi cation, or provide added benefi t to developers for projects they would have been pursued anyway. According to the press release by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), a key part of the newly released guidance clarifi es the “substantially all” requirements for the holding period and use of the tangible business property: • For use of the property, at least 70% of the property must be used in a qualifi ed OZ. • For the holding period of the property, tangible property must be qualifi ed opportunity zone business property for at least 90% of the Qualifi ed Opportunity Fund’s (QOF) or qualifi ed OZ business’s holding period.
