To See: Rooftop Parties


Roof Garden Cafe (Yelp)

Summer, wherever did you go? As the cold is starting to creep into the city (and we enter that season where I feel a little less ridiculous for wearing a blazer every single day) the age of the rooftop party is ending. If there's an especially warm night you decide braving it, several options remain. The lucky among you will have a friend with a roof— hissssssss. But as far as the bar scene goes, two viable options staying open are Salon de Ning at The Peninsula hotel and the defiantly more laid-back Delancey.

If you prefer something even more low-key, the Met's Roof Garden Cafe has unbeatable views... unless of course a tourist is blocking them. Additionally, more and more galleries in Chelsea hold weekend events up above for an alternative crowd.
