Happy Fourth of July week! There is so much to celebrate this week about living in this great city, this country. Where in the world do you get such a concentration of world-class artists, gorgeous cityscape, delicious food, and the best parties? In light of Brexit, and the dwindling spirit of fraternity in the world, let’s remember that the best thing about NYC is how *worldly* it is, while still being totally American. From our favorite English actor to Canada Day party, to Fourth of July, here’s how we’re toasting to simultaneously being a citizen of the world - and 100% New Yorker.

Radcliffe has grown up to be as intelligent and winning as one could’ve hoped, with a wide-ranging repertoire from horror to rom-com to drama. Just don’t call him Harry.
