A Five-Borough Weekend

More than two years after moving to New York, I just had my first five-borough weekend. I full-throatedly recommend it. Much of the joy owed to letting the weekend develop organically; over-describing or -prescribing risks turning something fun into a checklist. But, in case you're simply curious, here's a synopsis:

Manhattan

It began inconspiculously. After work on Friday, I ambled down Sixth Avenue, having made what at the time felt like depressingly few weekend plans. I played and lost two chess games in Bryant Park at $1 apiece before deciding where to eat dinner: Phayul, a Tibetan restaurant that a friend and I had considered but decided against the previous weekend.

Queens

Phayul's location, a couple short blocks from the Roosevelt Ave. station in Queens's Jackson Heights neighborhood, makes it surprisingly accessible from midtown; I think the entire trip took less than a half-hour.

Frank Leslie A Life-Lengthener

Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper — Dec. 15, 1860 — p. 53

(From the Home Journal)

FRANK LESLIE A LIFE-LENGTHENER.

By N.P. Willis

There are men who lengthen human life—those who shorten its industrial processes, or remove its hindrances or accelerate its compelled purposes and movements—enabling us to take ease and enjoy, where, before, we only lost life by toiling and suffering. It is for more time to live worthily, in fact, that we thank all great inventors—Morse for relieving us of suspense and dependence on mail-bags; Fulton for faster conveyance than by sails and stage-coaches; Whitney for a machine by which one man can do the work of three hundred; Hahnemann for enabling us to omit emetics and purges; Daguerre and Brady for superseding expensive portrait-sitting and difficult friend-remembering. And to this list of public benefactors we now think should be added Frank Leslie, who has rendered comparatively needless two of life's most laborious proceses, viz., the travelling and fancy-picturing
