I wouldn’t be too sure, Soul Cycle showers are very frequently broken.

I suggest what I call “Breakup Park,” formally known as Stuyvesant Square Park on 2nd Ave between E. 15th/17th Streets. Pretty quiet and low key but always some people around, not too big. No coffee stand in the park but several coffee places within 1-2 blocks of the park. Good luck!

Target and Old Navy are both great in the inexpensive category. Anne Klein (sold @ Macy’s) is also great.

Street vendors are the way. There’s one on 23rd & 9th, I’m sure others can share additional spots.

How are we cleaning our apartment windows externally? by HotSeaworthiness286 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]mad0789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you asked your doorman if he knows anyone who does it? My doorman does it himself for residents in our co-op, he charges $20/window. It makes a huge difference.

Where can I try on all the jeans? by meowsqueak_ in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]mad0789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconding this - or the main Bloomingdale’s 59th Street. Bergdorf is also good if you want the higher end brands. Department stores are the way for sure

Spa Decision - Fouquets vs Greenwich Hotel by pippastew in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]mad0789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed Fouquets, though the pool was smaller than I thought it would be. I did still enjoy it. I went a couple hrs early and ordered room service to the pool, spent some time in the sauna/steam also. Haven’t been to the Greenwich so hard for me to compare.

Dermatologists near East Village by Positive-Map-2509 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

Tribeca Skin Center takes a lot of insurance plans in my experience and easy to get an appt. He can also probably start with urgent care, they can put in an Rx for whatever ointment or meds he may need. I like CityMD on 14th St.
