Founded in 1866, the Horological Society of New York is one of the world’s oldest continuously operated watch-making associations, and their headquarters is right here in Midtown Manhattan. In this short video from our friends at Atlas Obscura, take a peek inside and see the delicate art of watchmaking in action.

In our newest episode of #AtlasObscuraTries, we’re working with a horologist to learn the exquisite, delicate art of making clocks and watches. Join deputy editor Samir Patel as he visits the Horological Society of New York to learn how to take apart a watch and put it back together.

The Beef of the Bagels continues in NYC. Nicole put up a good fight in The Bay, but Cody is here to show that NYC's bagels are a force to be reckoned with. You can find a cheap, basic bagel almost anywhere, but we don’t want basic. We are craving next-level, mind-blowing deliciousness that is actually affordable. Join host Cody Reiss as he takes us to the dankest bagel spot in Midtown for the cheapest lunch our duckets can buy. We’re going to a local gem that’ll settle all the bagel beef once and for all -- Ess-a-Bagel. This place is serving up some of the tastiest bagels in NYC and we’re showing you why.

Ess-a-Bagel is located in Midtown East on 3rd and 51st.

This great vintage photograph shows the World Trade Center's Twin Towers in 1973, completely framing the Woolworth Building in between. Snapped by an unknown photographer from across the Hudson River in New Jersey, the photo shows how the towers were built immediately adjacent to the river and the West Side Highway. A few years after this photo was taken, excavated dirt from the tower's construction would be used to landfill the neighborhood of Battery Park City, and the buildings would end up "moving" a few blocks inland.
