DE AZOTEA EN AZOTEA

El verano en New York ha alcanzado temperaturas que asustan, pero la gran ciudad se defiende, entre otras cosas, abriendose al viento y al fresco de la noche en los topes de los rascacielos.
FranK Bruni, el reportero del New York Times hizo un gran reportaje sobre los bares de las azoteas neoyorkinas, muchas de ellas en los techos de los hoteles y otros con tortuosas y difíciles entradas que requeiren elevadores especiales no siempre muy visibles. Aqui van algunos nombres y la señas para acceder al reportaje. Buen viaje! y Salud!

Manhattan’s Rooftop Bars: Heaven’s Gates By FRANK BRUNI Published: July 22, 2010 Top of Form

Shaken or stirred? Red or white? Draft or bottled? For most of the year these are the biggest questions confronting the thirsty New Yorker. And no answer is wrong.

But when the sun is strong and the days are long, an additional, equally important pair of options crops up, and the choice between them can make or break a good night.

Stay down or go up?

I speak of the rooftop bar, an institution with special relevance to New York City, where the roofs are higher, the views longer, the promise grander. In this vertical wonderland it seems only right to ascend.

60 Thompson, a hotel in SoHo
  • Hotel on Rivington, on the Lower East Side,
  • mad46, the bar on top of the Roosevelt Hotel, in Midtown.
  • Salon de Ning at the Peninsula Hotel.
  • rooftop bar at the Gramercy Park Hotel,
  • the Top of the Strand, a relatively new bar on the rooftop of the Strand Hotel
  • Hudson Terrace on the West Side
  • 230 Fifth, both the address for, and name of, a jarringly sprawling deck near Madison Square Park
