New York City Burgers on New York Citysearch →
Josh Ozersky shares his top ten NYC burgers. I’ve been to 5/10, including the top four. The list is pretty good, though if they’re doing “burgers that matter” I’m surprised they left out Burger Joint at the Le Parker Meridien hotel and of course, Corner Bistro.

The 27 Club: Musicians Who Died At The Age of 27 →
Ahh, the old 27 club. For some reason I always used to tell people about this club, especially if they were 27. And just to note, Kurt Cobain was quoting Neil Young when he said, “it’s better to burn out, than to fade away.”
Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects - Chicken... →
I love the Chicken Point Cabin by this architecture firm. I’ve always been fascinated with the idea of a large window (in this case, massive) that operates in the same manner as a traditional garage door.
