  • Year in Review 2020 – 2021
    YEAR IN REVIEW 2020 – 2021 THE GARMENT DISTRICT ALLIANCE 1 WELCOME BACK Like most of Midtown, the Garment District faced new challenges this past year. Pedestrian counts were well below normal, as office tenants predominantly worked from home and ground floor businesses remained closed or limited their hours. Reduced activity impacted public safety and affected the ways in which we typically measure success. However, the Garment District Alliance was never more important to the neighborhood than it was this year. Despite the pandemic, our office never closed, as our dedicated staff continued to provide critical public safety and sanitation services. We worked closely with the West Midtown community, our neighboring BIDs, and the City of New York to tackle quality of life issues. We supported our local companies through social media promotions and business development initiatives, and we pushed forward with important streetscape, horticulture, and public art projects. In short, we kept the Garment District ready for business, while laying the groundwork for the years ahead. Today, we are happy to report that a slow but steady stream of employees is returning to the neighborhood. We are thankful for all the resilient companies of the Garment District, several of whom we celebrate in the pages of this report. Whether they have returned to the neighborhood or can’t wait to come back, our diverse businesses community is what will continue to make the Garment District a vibrant part of Midtown. Recovery has begun. We look forward to everyone getting back to business. Barbara A. Blair Martin Meyer President Chair 2 NEIGHBORHOOD PROMOTION 3 Doggy Bags A series of gigantic, playful dog companions took center stage on Broadway from September to Thanksgiving.

Teenage maths prodigy Nathan (Asa Butterfield) struggles when it comes to building relationships with other people, not least with his mother, Julie (Sally Hawkins). In a world difficult to comprehend, he finds comfort in numbers. And when Nathan is taken under the wing of unconventional and anarchic teacher, Mr. Humphreys (Rafe Spall), the pair forge an unusual friendship. Eventually, Nathan’s talents win him a place on the UK National team at the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) and the team travel to a training camp in Taiwan, under the supervision of squad leader Richard (Eddie Marsan). In unfamiliar surroundings, Nathan is confronted by a series of unexpected challenges — not least the unfamiliar feelings he begins to experience for his Chinese counterpart, the beautiful Zhang Mei (Jo Yang), feelings that develop when the young mathematicians return to England for the IMO, held at Trinity College, Cambridge. From suburban England to bustling Taipei and back again, this original and heart-warming film tracks the funny and complex relationships that Nathan builds, as he is confronted by the irrational nature of love.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
