When you’re a kid, September is all about going back
to school. When you’re an adult, it’s more about staying
in denial about the end of summer.
This month, we’ve hunted down some ways to keep
the summer fun going. Spend a warm evening at The
Courtyard, a pop-up at Paper Factory complete with
twinkle lights, cocktails and live music (page 14). Grab
some hand-churned, liquid nitrogen-frozen ice cream at
Four Winters in Long Island City (page 32). And give in
to your late-night cravings at FoodStruck, a new Astoria
eatery (page 38).
Plus, we asked your neighbors to share their hobbies
with us — everything from geocaching to collecting
dolls (page 10). Some young women are adding a new
hobby to their list this school year by participating in a
rock climbing program at The Cliffs in LIC (page 20).
To share news with us, email katrina@boromag.com.
