New York, with room to breathe
Three free places to spend time, from a SoHo art room to the Brooklyn waterfront. Pick one and let the day grow from there.
Culture New York
A compact Greenwich Village cinema rewards a closer look at the current programme.
The Quad has been part of Greenwich Village’s cinema landscape since 1972. New releases share the programme with retrospectives and guest appearances, giving the four-screen venue a wider range than a single weekly bill.
Start with a director, season or film that catches your attention, then make an evening of the surrounding neighbourhood. The Quad Bar adds an on-site stop around a screening.

Modern and contemporary art in Midtown. Choose a few galleries to linger in, then leave room for the sculpture garden.
A free park, a free gallery and a museum’s free evening are different kinds of plans. Here is how to make the distinction useful.
Start with art at the Whitney, take the High Line at your own pace, and keep a Village pizza stop in reserve.
