Hi everyone, my job just transitioned to 3 days WFH, and I was wondering if anyone has found a cafe or space that is computer/work friendly in the area. I live in the 80’s but don’t mind a little walk, would love to hear where other remote workers get their work done!

Thanks

I don't live in the UWS but am here 5x a week for work -- someone was telling me the UWS has the absolute best black & white cookies in the city.

This conversation actually happened a few days after me discovering Hamantaschen (from Fairway) here and talking with a friend, who said Greenberg's holds the claim of the best B&W cookie in the city.

As a major lover of B&W cookies, who can't indulge as much as I'd like to out of respect for my calorie deficit for weight loss purposes, I'd love to be pointed in the right direction!

Last time they put up signs like this they towed the cars that were left around 3 AM. They put these signs up the day before and never give people enough time. Does not necessarily mean they are definitely going to tow this time, but wanted to let people know. If they don’t tow they will probably ticket you :(

Hey UWSers,

I lost my wallet last night 7/21 at the AMC Lincoln Square location at the 5:15pm showing of The Odyssey. The movie ended around 8:30pm.

The box office said nothing has turned up yet and they even let me go up to the theater to check the seat for it but nothing was there.

It is a black and gray checkered cardholder wallet with two Chase cards and a Schwab card and my driver’s license. All of my accounts have been locked so everything is protected.

I’m afraid it fell out of my pocket during the movie or even on my walk home but if anyone finds it, please send a PM and I can confirm the name and address on the license and cards. Can confirm the brand/model of the wallet as well.

FWIW, the wallet has high sentimental value to me. It was gifted to me by my late grandmother (she passed January this year) and my very first “adult” wallet. I have had it for many years.

Hoping it turns up. I have been anxious all day. :/

My favorite kind of dumplings are fried pork dumplings with a thicker, chewier skin—are there any restaurants on the UWS, ideally around Morningside Heights, that serve them?

I’m referring to dumplings that have a doughier wrapper than most “potstickers” (so not what they have at Nan Xiang, for example). From my understanding, this type of dumpling is more typical of Northern Chinese cuisine. Sorry for the bad picture—I just pulled it from another post on Reddit—but hopefully it might help ring a bell!

Hi all! Pretty much as the title says. Moving back to the city after time away and am looking for individuals that service Central Harlem (below 125th). Open to recommendations. Further details:

- Handyman/Contractor: general help plus potential carpentry project for a custom closet

- Plumber: changing fixtures (license required)

- Cleaner: deep clean 1x month, maintenance clean 1x month. Looking for consistency. References will be requested.

Hi! Has anybody ever gotten balloons filled (ideally in the 60s or 70s) that they did not buy at the store? I have a dozen balloons to blow up for this weekend

No lie, this was my favorite pizza on the UWS. Very fond memories of my godfather buying a pizza every time I would be back from college or a trip. Incredibly sad.
