My husband and I are bringing our two girls to NYC (probably staying around Chelsea) for one of their 16th birthdays later this month.

Would love any thoughts or advice about the following:

-Which observation deck do teens think is most fun?
-Charm bracelet or necklace shops?
-Thinks she isn’t into Broadway but does love HP and Stramger Things. How do I entice her into the magic that is theater??
-Isn’t a foodie but loves pizza and bubble tea. Besides John’s of Bleecker Street (our personal fave), any specific recommendations?
-loves Legos - her only specific request so far has been to visit the 5th Ave flagship store 😂.
-loves books - planning on The Strand and the giant B&N.
-what is trending with younger visitors - or residents - of the city these days?
-any special/memorable birthday ideas?

Thanks in advance!!

Stone has been shut down to thru traffic from Bennett to Main for hours. Any idea why?

A number of police cars with sirens just sped down McBee and turned onto Academy towards Unity Park. Does anyone know what’s going on?
