Opened in 2009 after being re-envisioned by celebrated designer Milton Glaser and a team of architects and artists, SVA Theatre has become a world-class facility, specializing in the projected image, as well as seminars, lectures, and other presentations, many of which are free and open to the public.
The SVA Theatre is widely known for Milton Glaser’s iconic kinetic sculpture atop the marquee, which comes to life every hour on the hour. Inside, the elegant lobby leads to two auditoriums, Silas and Beatrice (named for SVA’s founder and his wife), which seat a total of 745 guests.
Originally opened in 1963 as the RKO 23rd Street, the building’s prior tenants have included both cinematic and performing arts organizations, most notably Broadway’s Roundabout Theatre Company, and played host to hundreds of artistic events over the years.
The SVA Theatre continues that tradition by hosting a variety of events year-round, both private and public. In addition to serving the needs of the School of Visual Arts, it is available to the community at large. We welcome you to attend our public events and to rent the space for your event needs.

Unlike all of those bus, subway, and Uber commuters, I walk everywhere. One of the perks of both living/working in Long Island City. And I see a lot of strange things along my half hour walks each morning to my office. The evenings not so much

For many years now, most weekday mornings find me walking past this two storied nondescript brick building in Long Island City, Queens, enroute to my office. I felt the building was abandoned, as never was there any activity in or out of it present. One recent morning the rolled steel door was actually up, revealing an inner sanctum of crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Wow! Long Island City is certainly full of surprises

Kips Bay was an inlet of the East River running from what is now 32nd Street to 37th Street in Manhattan, New York City. The bay extended into Manhattan Island to just west of what is now First Avenue and had two streams that drained into it. The bay was named after New Netherland Dutch settler Jacobus Hendrickson Kip (1631–1690), son of Hendrick Hendricksen Kip, whose farm ran north of present-day 30th Street along the East River. The bay became reclaimed land, yet "Kips Bay" remains the name of the area.
Kip built a large brick and stone house, near the modern intersection of Second Avenue and East 35th Street. The house stood from 1655 to 1851, expanded more than once, and when it was demolished was the last farmhouse from New Amsterdam remaining in Manhattan. Iron figures fixed into the gable-end brickwork commemorated the year of its first construction. Its orchard was famous, and, when first President George Washington was presented with a specimen of its Rosa gallica during his first administration (1789–1793), when New York was serving as the first national capital city, it was claimed to have been the first garden to have grown it in the Thirteen Colonies.

I just never thought I would ever go through anything like this. My 6 treatments (cycles) of Kemosabe Liquid Sunshine concluded in early October and I am presently convalescing from peripheral neuropathy, nerve damage of my feet. Which are healing slowly. And my hair has also begun to regrow. I have been working remotely and am scheduled to return to work in early January. Initially I had been going into work following each treatment, until I reached cycle #4 in early August, after which the side effects hit me like a sledgehammer, as no one had informed me how side effects are cumulative.

There exists a societal stigma with regards to cancer, which silently stipulates how people are not supposed to speak of nor acknowledge it. Yeah, well, you know what I say to that? Go Fuck Yourself. No one tells me what to do with my creativity.

Shake Shack sprouted from a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park in Manhattan to support the Madison Square Park Conservancy’s first art installation. The cart was quite the success, with Shack fans lined up daily for three summers. An instant neighborhood fixture, Shake Shack welcomes people from all over the city, country and world who gather together to enjoy fresh, simple, high-quality versions of the classics in a majestic setting. The rest, as they say, is burger history.
Created by renowned New York City restaurateur, and park benefactor Danny Meyer, the ivy-covered kiosk located in the southwest corner of the park is the world’s first Shake Shack.
Today, Shake Shack locations total 262 in the United States and 142 International

It's to be for a car dealership. Now that most of them have been forced out of Northern Boulevard, they're opting to building elsewhere
Upon first receiving my Kemosabe Liquid Sunshine treatments, my start times were around 10:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. and they would always have this delicious grilled chicken for lunch, which came with string beans and rice. Yummy. After my second treatment, they changed my start time to a bit later, which meant I missed lunch. Oh my goodness, I was so upset.
Following each of my treatment sessions, my amazing boss would pick me up and drive me home to my apartment. She had agreed to be my alternate Health Care Proxy (my principal one being my great friend of 35-yeras, now retired from 42-years as a NYC hospital nurse, and living back home in the Philippines). My boss only missed one treatment, as she had been vacationing in Japan. Though another amazing individual, another work colleague, picked me up that time and drove me home. I mean, it was just all so fantastic.
If you ever go through anything like this, just make certain to have a solid support system established before you go through any treatments.
The white coats had assigned me one of their social workers, though the woman called me only once, asked me a bunch of stupid questions, then sent me a message referring me onto an online app titled "Cancer Buddy", which is for cancer patients to connect to other patients. For moral support and companionship. Really? This social worker's customer service/bedside manner felt curt, cold, and dismissive. I had logged onto the app briefly, just to see what it was about, and it was bright yellow and white. Hideous & weird. Now, yellow is a funny color, and it doesn't always mean sunshine and tulips. It can also mean caution. And white isn't always as pure as the driven snow. Color psychology is an extremely interesting subject.
So, the app was like a dating app, but with cancer patients, sharing their stats for other cancer patients to like and share alike. It all felt kind of sad. They should have colored that black & white, it would have been so much better. The "social worker" essentially just brushed me under the carpet and left me to interact amongst strangers on the web. Think about that for a second. This same social worker had looked straight at me while I was in the waiting room of the Infusion Center, and she had no idea who I was. Perhaps it would be best to add "Anti" to the front of her title.
Luckily, I had already established my support team prior to having received any treatments. And it really did make such a difference, as I felt more confident going in.

112525: D-53 requires a refill
This morning I logged onto my pharmacy website and the refill required pre-approval from my Oncologist's office, whom I sent a message to straightaway and she responded in kind not long thereafter.
~
Upon first meeting my medical team back in March 2025, I showed up to the consultation with a notebook in hand, as well as a printed list of questions, with check boxes and space for answers. I had one copy for myself, as well as additional copies for any others, of which there were a total of 3. The Oncologist remarked how I was so organized.
Organized is my middle name.
For the past 23-years I have worked as a professional executive assistant. Many times for C-levels. All 3 looked at me nonplussed. They had no idea what that was. And I said how I was going to be a tough patient, as I follow-up on every single thing. Question everything. Take copious notes, which I transcribe. I've technical writing experience. And are a speed typist, 145 wpm (words per minute). So, y'all best be ready.
The messaging system at that hospital, that's a great record of mine. And they've grown to appreciate my writings. This is my life. And I have to make certain of everything.

An executive assistant (EA) provides high-level administrative support to senior executives to help them stay organized and productive. Their duties include managing calendars, scheduling meetings, booking travel, and handling correspondence. EAs often also manage special projects, handle sensitive information, and act as a point of contact for other staff or external partners, playing a crucial role in an executive's efficiency and daily operations.

Years back it had been a Holiday Inn. 15-years ago I'd attended a wedding reception after party in its penthouse. My neighborhood is currently super hot real estate wise, so this will either be torn down completely, or refurbished. It's anyone's guess..
