Routes and collections this place belongs to
In The Area
MuseumEast Village
The Brant Foundation
Downtown legends, ambitious shows, and giant industrial architecture combine in one of the East Village's most unexpectedly great art spaces. Warhol, Haring, Basquiat, Kelley — the Brant Foundation feels like walking through the last forty years of contemporary art history.
GalleryEast Village
Half Gallery
This glass-walled gallery shows realist work in which desire and fantasy simmer on the surface.
Coffee ShopEast Village
Café Chrystie
Great coffee, pieces from the Chrystie NYC label, and a stack of photo books, all in one cozy, easy cafe-boutique.
RestaurantEast Village
Cafe Mogador
East Village cool kids have come here for decades, and it still delivers — Moroccan eggs at brunch, lamb tagine late at night, all in a room of hot pinks and tall plants.
