Midtown Comics Downtown

S.O.B's is one of the city's most popular music and nightlife venues, and has been active on the party scene since 1982. Known as the "Home of Universal Music," the live entertainment venue has hosted performances of music from all genres, from Latin to Caribbean, Haitian, hip-hop, R&B and more. A few famous faces who've graced the stage include Damien Marley, Common, Kanye West, Drake, Erykah Badu and John Legend.

Architects will appreciate the exhibits at the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum. The museum is housed in the former Andrew Carnegie Mansion and features exhibits and artifacts that showcase design history, along with contemporary design. The collection is showcased in four departments: Product Design and Decorative Arts; Drawings, Prints and Graphic Design; Textiles, and Wallcoverings.

Concerts, parties, live television, web broadcasts, awards shows and more all have a home at the Playstation Theater. This indoor theater in Times Square boasts an 85-foot-long LED high-definition screen, one of the largest marquees on Broadway. The entertainment venue shares this spectacular screen with MTV Studios and presents live footage from both partners. This bright screen doesn't outshine the stars that perform here though; artists like Brad Paisley, Damian Marley, Sugarland, Rob Zombie, Prince, Kanye West, Korn, Foreigner, Alicia Keys, Linkin Park and Drake are but a few of the many talented performers who have graced the stage at Playstation Theater.

Enjoy the artworks that comprise The Frick Collection. The collection is housed in the former Henry Clay Frick House, a house that had a reputation for being one of the most opulent houses on Fifth Avenue at a time when the now-famed avenue was abundant with mansions and private clubs.
