The threat of this virus has transformed outdoor spaces, even though some New Yorkers can’t afford it. Outdoor spaces are usually empty during the cold months.

As New York City passes through the pandemic winter, many parks, squares and open spaces are vital to New York’s public life in the warmer months and have now become cold playgrounds.

With the proliferation of viruses and new restrictions on indoor gatherings, outdoor spaces have become critical to crowded cities.

As a result, the menu of outdoor products has gone beyond the usual skating rink and winter celebrations, paving the way for a more robust outdoor culture.

Manhattan’s Bryant Park has a new ice-free curling cafe where players can slide stones on five slippery synthetic lanes. Outdoor movies are shown in the plaza near Hudson Yards. An "outdoor living room" with wooden benches near Prospect Heights in Brooklyn. An open space in Emptoria in Queens has been turned into an open-air cinema.

Heated igloos and cabins scatter the cityscape, and the glass canopy built on part of the public garden at the bottom of a skyscraper on Madison Avenue will eventually protect visitors from rain and snow.

Just as the pandemic has changed New York’s car-dominated streets through outdoor dining and shopping, the threat of this virus has also inspired a reimagining of public spaces that are usually vacant in cold weather.

Jerold S. Kayden, a professor of urban planning and design at Harvard University, said: “New York is not a city where outdoor activities are generally celebrated in winter.” “This is not a place where ice sculpture competitions traditionally break chainsaws.”

Mr. Kaden said, however, if New York City’s public places are equipped with heaters, heat-absorbing materials, designs that maximize the use of natural light, and other measures to “place New York City outdoors in a friendly way,” this may be possible. Will change. cold. "

Even before the virus broke out, people have been working hard to create more outdoor public places open all year round. A design

The city landmark at 550 Madison Avenue (previously home to AT&T and Sony) was unveiled in 2019.

However, the epidemic has brought many new and expanded outdoor activities throughout the city-although many people live in well-off communities, and prices are beyond the reach of many New Yorkers.

"They provide services to those who can afford it," said Claudia Coger, a 85-year-old retired urban transport worker who has already performed at the Astoria Open Air Theater. And hope to provide more outdoor activities for everyone around the city. "The rest are excluded. They need to go back to the drawing board once like this."

Nevertheless, some groups have organized free and low-cost outdoor activities. There is a new audio guide

It is a fairytale lookout in Central Park. During the holidays, there is a pop-up market for Caribbean and black artists in Prospect Park.

Later this month, a rainbow-like forest will cover 25 giant prisms on Broadway. The Garment District Alliance, which operates the business improvement area, is installing the name "

The president of the alliance, Barbara A. Blair, said that the plan was designed to revitalize the hard-hit communities, and the flow of people fell by more than half during the pandemic.

In lower Manhattan,

, Is a whimsical art installation, similar to a glowing neon jungle gymnasium, twice as much as the outdoor seating on the water street.

The Brooklyn Public Library only provides ready-to-use book services and provides free

Created by artist Heinrich Spillmann, the Internet can be accessed outside the central branch of the Grand Army Plaza, and the network will remain in use throughout the winter-but without heaters.

The library also plans to take a so-called story walk, in which pages of children's books will be displayed on the outdoor trail. Fritzi Bodenheimer, a library spokesperson, said: "If we can't bring people into our buildings, we have been thinking about bringing our services out."

However, many of the coolest outdoor experiences are not suitable for people on a tight budget.

The planned 1.2-acre Astoria coastal area has been temporarily converted into

With a huge movie screen, and set up a stage on the shipping container. There have been 22 performances, combining movies and live performances, attracting more than 1,000 people.

Producer Jeremy Shepard said that ticket sales ($100 per car, or up to 4 people on a picnic table) supported local actors, musicians and stage performers during the show Many of them lost their jobs due to the pandemic.

Ms. Coger and other residents of Astoria Houses are free, which is a public housing development project across the street from the car. Ms. Cog attended three performances and told her neighbors to go.

She said: "A lot of people have never participated in an outdoor show." "They like it. They think it's a plus."

In Bryant Park,

The meeting starts in 90 minutes, costs $200, and allows up to four people to play in the dedicated lane. The price includes drinks and snacks with heated tents.

For those who like the pandemic limousine feel, there are also

Equipped with electric heaters, recliners, and offers dessert wine, salted caramel cider, handmade cheese plates and deli plates. The igloo starts at $200, can accommodate up to 4 people, lasts for 90 minutes, and is broadcast and disinfected after each use.

Shaival Patel, 37, a director of Mizuho Securities, recently proposed to his girlfriend, 30-year-old marketing manager Aditi Desai, in an igloo. Their first date was in the park in 2019, drinking hot chocolate together. This time, he bought an igloo for $250, and he knelt down. She said yes. After that, they toasted with sweet wine.

Mr. Patel said: "I think this is absolutely worth it for what you will remember all your life."

The heated igloo is also located along the Hudson River

At Pier 26

In Rockefeller Center. Michael Dorf, CEO and founder of the city winery that runs the two locations, said that a winter dome was added to expand its outdoor dining space.

For the short winter vacation, there are 28

Located at the top of the dining and entertainment center in South Avenue Seaport. Marketing director Craig Manfra said that in response to this epidemic, the outdoor area called "green plants on the roof of Pier 17" was divided into individual outdoor spaces. In summer, social distancing

Equipped with artificial turf, deck chairs and parasols.

The winter cabins are equipped with spacious booth seats, virtual fireplaces, air purifiers, and non-contact cocktails and hearty delicacies, such as fondue and truffle grilled cheese.

The cost of booking the cottage was $5 for lunch on weekdays and $50 for dinner and weekends. Part of the proceeds were donated to local charities. Manfra said the cabins are sold out almost every week and there is a waiting list of more than 17,000 requests.

There is even an outdoor fitness room. Equinox owns an upscale hotel and fitness club in Hudson Yards. The company took over a nearby open space and established advanced fitness equipment, private training and group classes in the outdoor fitness club. Open the ventilation in the heated tent of the ceiling.

This outdoor club opened to Equinox members in October-membership starts at $270 per month-and has been visited more than 10,000 times.

Just a few steps away, the outdoor plaza behind a luxury shopping mall in Hudson Yards has been turned into a public backyard. It has freely screened classic movies, including "This is Really a Beautiful Life" and "A Miracle on 34th Street", and showcased the murals that local artists placed in the shopping mall before the pandemic.

Two 49-year-old Faith Salie and John Semel have brought their two children to six outdoor movies. Ms. Salie is a writer and performer. She said that before the pandemic, they used to go out in the cold and could only go to other places indoors, but now they are looking for reasons to stay outdoors.

She said: "This is the only safe way to admire the city and the people we know from a distance." "This is a new experience. Sometimes I feel like I am a better mother. Send the children out and see them take. Go home with ruddy cheeks."

The historic Jackson Hotel partially collapsed last month and then razed to the ground to prevent further danger.

According to owner Matt Long, Harrisburg Commercial Interior Design is working to stabilize the building located in the 1000 block of N. 6th Street when the situation becomes unsafe. Lang said the workers were able to be safe before the wall facing Herr Street collapsed.

Owner Dave Kegris (Dave Kegris) said that staff and customers at the nearby Jackson Building restaurant saw the falling bricks hit the car and damaged the restaurant’s roof and signs. Within a few hours, Long began to demolish the rest of the building to ensure safety.

Around 1884, the Jackson Hotel once catered to African-American customers who were denied service in the pure white restaurant in Harrisburg. When the long-term owner, German Jackson, died in 1998, the building was boarded and has been vacant since.

In his will, Jackson left the building to Kegris, which he did not own until 2015. Since then, the building has changed hands several times, and in the past few years, murals celebrating local black history have been prominently displayed.

During this time, almost no renovations were carried out, and eventually the roof of the building collapsed and the back of the building collapsed. The interior of the building was in the shape of a pancake, making it ruined, and the city condemned it.

Long purchased the building in 2018 and plans to stabilize the foundation and build a new interior and roof. He intends to create apartments and commercial spaces.

Lang said that he now plans to build a brand new structure on the site that closely replicates the building of the original Jackson Hotel.

The Friends of the West Bund Theatre announced last month that they had secured sufficient funds to begin the renovation of the 80-year-old New Cumberland Theatre.

The organization and district government officials gathered under the iconic canopy of the building to celebrate the significant progress of fundraising activities.

Mayor Doug Morrow said: "We are aware of the value of trying to restore and preserve this theater in New Cumberland." "The funds are in place. We are moving forward."

The West Shore Theatre opened in 1940 at a face price of 25 cents. It was a beloved small town theater until it closed in 2015. The Friends of the West Bund Theatre eventually acquired it and began planning to bring it back to life.

Morrow announced that through several new grants, the board of directors has raised $1.4 million of the $2 million required for the renovation.

The most important piece of funding comes from the state’s Reconstruction Assistance Capital Program (RACP), which amounts to $650,000. The Palestinian Authority’s Ministry of Community and Economic Development also provided a grant of $250,000 for the project. Other local foundations also provided grants.

A major renovation is planned, including additional seating and standing seating areas, stage improvements, new equipment and other upgrades.

The Friends of the West Bund Theatre, Dan Burke, said that the addition of facilities at the rear of the theatre, such as green rooms and classrooms, is likely to happen a year after opening to the public.

Morrow added that they intend to use the theater to show movies, live performances, theater classes and community group meetings.

A resident of Harrisburg looked at the last dilapidated commercial building in Midtown and planned to turn it into a small apartment.

Nathaniel Foote signed a contract to purchase the "Carpet and Curtain" building marked by the front door of the 1500 block of the former Nerber 3rd Street.

His plan calls for a five-unit apartment building on a 4,800 square foot three-story brick structure, as well as commercial space on the first floor.

He said: "I live nearby." "I hope to see the property restored."

Foote is a lawyer who owns two duplexes in Midtown and owns parking facilities with his father. He said that the interest in the building almost came from walking past almost every day, so he eventually called the real estate agent for the property.

He said: "I am not a foreign developer who wants to make money," he estimated that the construction cost was about $500,000. "Given the number of units you can get from it, the cost is high."

Mussani & Matz Co., headquartered in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, has owned this century-old building since 2007, but for most of the time it has been empty and decayed. It has been on the sales market in recent years.

Six years ago, two Harrisburg residents proposed to convert the building into a winery, but the project was abandoned due to the failure to obtain the approval of the City District Hearing Committee.

Foote said he was encouraged by a series of development proposals in the nearby area. In the past year, several developers have made project proposals for the Reily Street corridor, but the ground has not yet been broken.

Foote’s plan calls for all two-bedroom units to range from 750 to 2,000 square feet, with 1,000 square feet of commercial space on the first floor. He hopes he will live in the largest apartment on the third floor.

He said that depending on the size of the unit, the rent varies from about US$1,000 per month to about US$1,400 per month.

Foote hopes to include the project on the agenda of the February meeting of the City Planning Committee and District Hearing Committee. If the project is approved by the city, he hopes to start construction in March and complete it before the end of the year.

Foote said that the interior is visceral, so it needs to be completely rebuilt. He plans to carry out construction for Harrisburg Commercial Interiors. He said that as part of the project, the famous "carpet and curtain" logo will be restored.

The building does not have its own on-street parking space, but is surrounded by ground parking lots. Foote said he hopes to rent a parking space from one of the landlords.

Harrisburg school district officials may be closer to welcoming some students back to the school building.

Acting Superintendent Chris Celmer said last month that if COVID-19 cases in the area continue to decrease, a small number of students can resume physical studies in March.

He said: "This is our hope, this is our wish." "This is what we hope to see happen."

He said the focus will be on returning special education and elementary school students to the building first, as well as other student groups that the area considers the most struggling.

Since the beginning of the school year, the school district has been using a 100% virtual learning model. From the beginning, administrators have been looking for Dauphin County to meet certain benchmarks in order to bring students back to the building. Selmer said they are still using these markers to determine whether to allow these small groups to return to the school building in March.

These include the trend that the positive rate drops below 10% and the incidence rate per 100,000 residents drops to 100 or less per day. He also hopes to see the wastewater epidemiology tracker Biobot predicts that the number of Harrisburg virus cases that occur every day is close to 100 or less.

Housing sales in the Harrisburg area increased significantly in December, bringing a strong year to the local real estate market.

According to data from the Greater Harrisburg Association of Realtors (GHAR), the total number of home sales in the three counties was 744, compared to 611 in December 2019, while the median price rose to $217,750, compared to 187,500 in the same period last year. Dollar.

GHAR said that Dauphin County sold 348 homes compared to 279 in December last year, and the median price rose by $20,000 to $185,000.

In Cumberland, 353 houses were sold, compared with 287 in the same period last year. The median price increased from $215,000 in December to $244,820.

According to GHAR, monthly sales in Perry County were 40 units, compared with 22 units in December 2019, and the median price fell from $182,500 to $179,900.

Home sales are also fast. According to GHAR data, the average number of days on the market has dropped to 26 days, compared with 46 days in December 2019.

The Harrisburg area’s real estate market has performed strongly throughout 2020, especially after the pandemic-related restrictions were lifted in May.

The Yoga Community Yoga Studio has moved several doors down to a larger new space at 1423 Third Street in Harrisburg. Two years ago, Erika Malorzo opened a "pay-as-you-go" yoga studio, and recently had to relocate the building that sold its original space.

It announced last month that it required urban workers to be vaccinated against COVID-19. Mayor Eric Papenfuse (Eric Papenfuse) signed an executive order requiring municipal employees to be vaccinated as soon as possible in accordance with the state's distribution guidelines.

They appointed their 2021 board chairman last month. Meron Yemane of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will lead the board of chambers of commerce, while Mike Funck of Wohlsen Construction will lead the board of CREDC. The two committees also appointed new officials for this year.

It was announced last month that it had successfully sold $100 million in tax-free bonds to institutional investors. The money will be used to fund the construction of its 11-story academic building located on S. 3rd and Chestnut streets in downtown Harrisburg.

Cleverly blending retro and modern design concepts, this residence has a quirky but unique aesthetic. The soaring ceiling, floating staircase and soft blue and white tones make this house not gloomy, while interesting decorations such as old-fashioned telephones, old-fashioned stoves and tables with barrel accents make it unique. From the exposed light bulbs to the atomic wall lamps in the living room to the glass bottle chandelier above the kitchen island, the lighting alone is commendable. 

To enjoy the charm of the interior decoration, you will definitely want to go to the outside deck, where you can enjoy the view of the mountains. Leconte and soaked in the hot tub under the string of lights and the stars.

Expecting changes in the new year, we will dust the crystal ball to understand the future development. Well, it's actually a snowball-by the time we arrived at that store, there was no crystal ball in the store-but that was okay because we then asked our employees to think about what they would happen in the next 12 months What conditions do they report on. They came up with an exhaustive list, discussing upcoming trends in everything from food to travel, movies to stage performances, office use to our social life-yes, we believe we will have a social life again. You don't have to wait a few months to see what is coming in 2021, but you can look back at the coming year in advance.

Tom Cruise did not show any major movies last year, but his performance was really outstanding. Last month, he was tortured by crew members in the latest "Mission: Impossible" movie for not following the rules of social mediation. Some people interpret his novel as a self-travel, but this superstar also sends a crucial message: If everyone is careful, the movie can move forward.

The same can be said for other forms of entertainment.

Robert Baril of the Twin Cities station believes that the comedy club will reopen soon, but with limited capacity for most of 2021.

"Unfortunately, the best place for comedy is also the best place for viruses-cramped spaces filled with people-so it may take some time to get back to the original state," said Barrier, who just released the album. The title is "2020", and it looks back on an unprecedented year with comedian Bryan Miller. "But any live audience is better than Zoom."

Smaller theaters will continue to suffer losses, but larger rooms (such as the 576-seat main stage of Chanhassen Dinner Theaters) may resume operations in the summer. If this happens, the death of George Floyd and the subsequent protests will have an impact on the artistic director Michael Brindisi.

He said: "I am personally committed to creating a more diversified company." "I want to think carefully about the way we come back, because it is related to individuals seeking social justice and fairness."

Want to know the future of American pets? See what the future of Americans will look like-and add some snacks to such a good boy!

Pet owners (many of whom claim to be pet parents) are fully investing in natural pet care products, toys and food. Philip Cooper, president of the California-based pet industry expert consulting company, said that in addition to high-quality meat and vegetable mixtures, some pet parents are even keen on custom meals tailored to breeds and sizes.

Like their working-from-home parents, pets have been virtualized, and pre-adoption visits and training "at home" have been transferred to online platforms and will likely stay there. Preparations for scrapping are no longer just for people. Nowadays, pets are living longer and longer and are considered part of the family. Therefore, more and more veterinarians are required to handle everything from consultation to cremation and funerals.

One worrying trend that has not yet emerged is the increase in pet surrender. When the pandemic began, the shelter was ready to return. But it seems that people are hanging pets. Azure Davis, founder of Ruff Start Rescue in Princeton, Minnesota, said: "People are still at home and they still need to be in touch."

Exotic animals are becoming more and more popular, probably because they require very little care. However, dogs are still the darling of the pet world, and the demand for puppies is as high as during the pandemic.

Do you think humans like their CBD? Pet parents are using oils, lotions, bandages and paw tins to treat joint pain. Cooper said many veterinarians are still skeptical of canine or feline cannabis.

Some people will definitely return to life before the pandemic as soon as possible: packed bars and clubs, crowded indoor music performances, theaters, sports fields and wedding venues.

However, many of us will re-enter the social sphere more cautiously and gradually incorporate more risky activities over the course of months or years. Or cancel them altogether (see Handshake).

This shows that our previous procedures will not return to normal before most Americans are vaccinated. Half of the respondents said that unless the country’s vaccination rate reaches 70%, they will not change their behavior.

A recent consumer trend survey conducted by Gartner shows that ordinary people are also vigilant, and they expect that normality will not last until the fall of 2021 or later. The research firm’s findings indicate that our formerly outward-facing culture (full of hands-on public experiences shared with large groups) will shift to smaller private events.

The mask may remain fixed for a considerable period of time. (It is not clear whether people who have been vaccinated can spread the virus or how long vaccination can last.) At the very least, masks will help conceal the social embarrassment we have caused after being isolated for so long.

Rachel Hutton

Even if the vaccine is used to tame the pandemic, work at home will continue. According to a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center, one-third of respondents said they would like to work from home (at least part of the time). Similarly, in a study by the University of Chicago, 70% of respondents indicated that they were reluctant to return to pre-pandemic activities that they now consider dangerous, including taking buses and sharing crowded elevators.

During the pandemic, employees who work remotely find that they have greater flexibility and are less likely to give up. This means that as employees continue to flexibly arrange their work schedules, the traditional 9 to 5, Monday to Friday working days will no longer be common.

The epidemic is expected to intensify this movement, which started a few years ago and incorporates more casual decoration (or even residential) into offices. Meetings held around tables in the past may be transferred to sofas and lounge chairs. Entertainment venues, including facilities such as table tennis tables and fitness centers, will become more and more common.

Jeff Strickler

After a year of hard and arduous juggling work, childcare and distance learning, many families hope to return to pre-pandemic routines as soon as possible. A recent survey by the Pew Research Center found that 65% of all school-age children’s parents are very worried about their backwardness, while 72% of low-income parents are worried.

Nevertheless, some of the positive habits developed during this long period of time will still be retained-such as spending time at home regularly, spending family movie nights, playing board games or jigsaw puzzles. Media analysts have discovered that the viewing trend is shifting from kids watching short videos on their own devices to kids watching movies with the whole family on the big screen.

Mindfulness exercises for children and family art and science projects will also continue. Pinterest makes predictions every year based on the content of its more than 400 million users fixed on social media networks. He said that "outdoor education", "cardboard toys" and "ethics courses" will be very important in the coming months.

Erica Pearson

After the pandemic is over, there may be a mixed home and gym exercise program. Streaming exercises have become very popular, partly because of the versatility they provide. But this does not mean that the stadium will be empty. Although the sales of home fitness equipment have increased, gymnasiums still have a variety of equipment and provide more exercise options.

In addition to hard work, more attention will be paid to mental and emotional health. The pressure of the pandemic has increased people’s awareness of overall well-being, including healthy eating and lifestyle. Core exercise programs will continue to attract a portion of the market, but the biggest growth may be in yoga, meditation, and stretching.

Wearable fitness has achieved great success, far beyond watches, covering everything from shoes and legwear to jackets and hats. As the product range expands, so does interest in them.

One surprising result of the pandemic (praised by industry experts) is the surge in the number of people exercising during the day. Numerous studies have shown that physical exercise during the day (rather than in the morning or at night) makes people more productive and creative.

And 7866 Fountain Avenue, a new apartment building with 25 units will be added, including outdoor facilities and underground parking, to improve these two areas. The creative office will be housed in the restored church, and the landscaped courtyard will connect the two buildings.

The existing two-story wooden structure will be demolished to make room for a five-story apartment building.

. The unit breakdown will include 16 studios and 9 one-bedroom apartments, including four affordable units reserved for very low- and middle-income families. A two-story underground garage will accommodate 13 residential parking spaces and 27 commercial parking spaces reserved for office workers.

Along the crowded Fountain Avenue, there will be a carpool waiting area with benches, and the residential lobby will be next to the courtyard at the back of the building. The linear courtyard is equipped with green walls, stone pavers, built-in benches and tables, which can be used by apartment residents and office workers.

The fourth floor will provide residents with an additional outdoor convenience facility. This west-facing outdoor terrace will have an artificial turf lawn, lounge chairs, stove, barbecue and dining table. Each unit will contain a private outdoor deck of approximately 100 square feet.

The architect proposed stucco, standing seam metal, die-cast concrete and Brazilian mahogany as exterior walls, but the design review subcommittee pointed out that it wanted to see "natural and healthy material finishes."

Steel exterior stairs with perforated metal railings will complement the stairs surrounding the outdoor space of each unit. The vertical "green screen" and the lighting of the green walls and LED strips on the ground will help improve the external environment.

At the same time, this former church will undergo internal and external renovations, dressed in fresh white paint, stained glass windows decorated in dark colors, and surrounded by greenery. There are two stories inside, each floor has a creative office space, and each kitchen has a communal kitchen.

Behind the scenes of the proposed project, it is only one block away from the bustling Sunset Boulevard. Future residents and office workers will be able to walk to hot spots such as The Laugh Factory, Chateau Marmont and DGA Theatre Complex. Nearby grocery stores include Trader Joe's, Whole Foods Market and Bristol Farms, while Runyon Canyon Park is just one and a half mile away.
