The gothic landmark tower that once housed the marble-lined Williamsburgh Savings Bank has sat largely silent for years–but that's about to change. In a massive win for Brooklyn's food scene, the vault is being traded for pasta. And honestly, if there's one thing New Yorkers will gladly replace banking with, it's carbs. Global hospitality brand Casa Tua –the powerhouse behind hotspots in New York, Miami, Paris, Capri, and Aspen–is officially bringing an elevated food and beverage hall concept to the base of One Hanson Place. Set to open in 2027, the project aims to turn the 512-foot Art Deco landmark into a world-class dining destination.

Though the calendar still says spring, Memorial Day weekend has officially arrived–which means New Yorkers are officially entering summer mode. And if your idea of a perfect summer escape involves sandy shores but doesn't involve fighting for a square inch of towel space at Rockaway Beach or the soul-crushing traffic crawl to the Hamptons, we may have just found your new warm weather obsession. Tucked away just over the Jersey border in Mahwah, Darlington County Park is officially reopening its massive swimming lakes and pristine white sand beaches for the 2026 season–and it feels worlds away from the city without requiring a full blown weekend getaway.
