NYLaughs presents a free comedy night in Union Square Park on Thursday, June 5, from 6 p.m to 9:15 p.m., kicking off a weekend comedy festival around the neighborhood.

Enjoy top comedians—from TV headliners to rising stars—curated to showcase NYC’s diverse voices. Presented with The Stand and Union Square Partnership.

Here is the corner of 13th and 5th, looking at the NE corner which now, of course, is The New School. This photo dates to the 1930s. Interesting how many changes have come to this corner over time.

Last month, the NYC Department of Transportation started implementing its street improvement plan on Broadway and 17th Street. The bottom line: more pedestrianization.

Interesting fact. The new Best Buy at the corner of 14th and 4th will be open all night.

Here on 13th St., ten-year-old Korean restaurant DoSirak has closed, while across the street in our building, BAK has opened. As it turns out, the BAK folks are the DoSirak folks, so all is well. Kimchi for all.

The Union Square Partnership offers many good deals on local shops and restaurants.
