It’s fair to say that as a nation, our style is, collectively, in a state of disaggregation. I blame the pandemic, changing bodies and atrophied social skills, though those are just working theories that lead to more questions. Do the old rules of dressing we once subscribed to even apply in a world where many…
“Resales have been ongoing for the past few years, too,” Mr. Gradner said, some to investors and others for personal use. Prices start at $400,000 for a one-bedroom apartment, $550,000 for a two-bedroom, and $700,000 for a three-bedroom. Houses, known as “maisons” begin at $900,000, and villas start at $2.95 million.

Good morning. Manhattan clam chowder is among the most divisive of soups. There are those who love it for its tangy bite: acidic tomatoes against the salinity of the clams, with a clean, vegetal bass line of green peppers and celery.

Selma Blair could only talk for a half-hour in our first session. That was as long as she trusted her brain and her body to cooperate — any longer and she feared that her focus might start to wander or her speech might begin to trail. “We’re being responsible in knowing that smaller moments will…
On a breezy Saturday last month, Vittorio Calabrese, the director of the Magazzino Italian Art museum in Cold Spring, N.Y., stood onstage in the courtyard to introduce the last event of the summer, a concert by the musician Sam Reider and his band the Human Hands.

Every Saturday, when Randa Sakallah sends out her free newsletter, Hot Singles, she hopes to make a match. Maybe not a forever love, but a connection, however fleeting, between two people who are interested in something more. Her emails feature profiles of eligible New Yorkers, framed in the old-school style of personal ads. One day,…
I bought a stainless-steel kitchen prep table in 2016 because I once read that you could throw hot pots and pans directly on it. This tall, sturdy table has since become a center of gravity for me. I do everything on it, from reading the paper with my coffee in the morning to developing recipes…
The advisory committee is also likely to consider whether Moderna’s protection against severe disease and hospitalization may eventually weaken. Booster proponents argue that Moderna’s potency is declining much like Pfizer’s, which is based on the same technology, only more slowly because its initial dosage is significantly stronger than Pfizer’s and the interval between the first…
