Looking to join mostly for the gym and sauna access. Any members here that can chime in? Thanks.
Anyone have furniture store recommendations in the area or NYC? Looking for a high quality sectional that doesn't come from big names (e.g., Crate, Arhaus, Ethan Allen).
Appreciate the help!
It's winter season and I hate running in the cold! I've been seeing changes in my body and now weigh 151 and I'm 5'0. I love running but I need muscle and a toosh lift. I'm committed to a fitness change, which do you think would be best to subscribe to? If I were to subscribe to a gym, I would do LA fitness since it's nearby. And there's a couple of Pilates nearby too, so traveling isn't an issue. Any suggestions?
My family is moving from Manhattan to Rye next year. We have a fantastic nanny that lives in queens and we’d love to retain her, but not sure she’d do live in. Are there any express buses from Queens up to anywhere in Westchester that I should look into? Any recommendations would be much appreciated.
Looked like a caravan of flying objects moving in unison in a straight line. About an hour ago. Very strange
Looking for apartment in Westchester. Main request is quiet! Thanks.
Hi Moved to southern westchester and haven’t found a good Peruvian chicken place. Any recommendations?
Where to buy????
I need to park my car somewhere in Westchester the next two to three weeks… is there a good Park & Ride or lot I can drop it in?
Thinking White Plains, Pleasantville, Mt Kisco, Chappaqua, Armonk, Bedford etc?
Hi Everyone,
My wife and I are first-time homeowners this year, and we’re trying to make sense of our recent water bill.
Here are the details: • House Details: 1600 square feet, one floor with a basement. • Household: Just the two of us. We shower 1–2 times a day and don’t leave water running unnecessarily. • Billing Period: 7/23/24–10/21/24 (quarterly). • Charges: • Quarterly meter (5/8): $15 • NYC raw water rate: $172.59 • Water service: $755.28 • Total Usage: 82,976 gallons
This seems extremely high for just two people. I feel like something might be wrong—maybe a leak or an issue with the meter?
Does anyone else in Cortlandt Manor have similar bills or experience with this? Any advice on how to investigate or resolve this?
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone have someone who can wall mount a 75” tv?
We are located in the white plains area.
I am opening up my own tutoring company and wondering if anyone has any ideas as to where I should advertise my business. I am looking for specific places (not generic like libraries etc). I know Sunshine Bagels in Ardsley has a place to advertise but wondering if anyone knows of any specific places to promote. Thanks!!
Now that Thanksgiving is over, it’s finally time to grab the Xmas tree for this year.
Where do you get your tree? What price and what height? Bonus points if you have gone multiple years in a row. Please don’t suggest Stew Leonard’s - we’ve had multiple bad trees from them over the years.
Thank you for your thoughts!
What did you all get hit with for November? My bill was $400 for gas this month. Curios to see what others are paying.
Hi, Wondering if anyone knows of primary care docs that are not part of one of these giant groups. Ever since my doc joined white plains hospital physician associates I can't get appointments. It seems like it is the same at every one of these groups. Any ideas?
I'm from the city and I'm planning on going to a Westchester Knicks game for the first time. How was your experience going. Anything that I should look out for?
Edit: What are the food options.
Just went to this Turkish restaurant at 6:30pm on a Saturday night. To say the least, I not was expecting for us to be the only table in the restaurant for the entirety of our stay. The food was delicious, but the lack of customers raised my eyebrows. Any thoughts?
Three cops drew their guns on a young adult (~20yo) who was pulled over. Police cars were flooding the scene. Any ideas as to what happens?
Since 2021, it seems like the 24 hour gym has died. Are there any in lower Westchester? 24 hour fitness has never been tha because of of the Pelham ordinance.
I saw a great post yesterday with Christmas tree recos, my question is a little more specific. Every nursery I go to has what looks like the same stock of tree: same species in different heights. Has anyone been to a nursery that had really different looking types of trees? For example different types of pines, different silhouettes? I’d like a tall skinny and more sparse / branchy (not bushy) tree, for example.
Looks like a section of i-95 approaching Thruway tolls Northbound was recently updated with white lane rumble strips (aka sleeper lines or alert strips)
Only saw this Northbound in small area from New Rochelle to Larchmont, NY. On Yellow lines we can all agree they add to safety yet who else thinks these should be standard on all major multi lane roadways?
What are some good cleaning companies to recommend. I’m looking for someone to deep clean my entire apartment. Thanks
Can anyone recommend a Japanese restaurant that has a Tatami room (small private room). I haven’t seen them in a long time. It would fit my needs for an upcoming birthday celebration. Extra points if not too far from Tarrytown. Thanks!
Hi everyone! Is there anywhere fun to get Christmas trees in Southern Westchester? I doubt there are any farms to chop down your tree, but I’m looking to support a local business rather than buy from a big brand grocery store.
Thanks!
Sharing a copy of a letter I sent to the Common Council this morning regarding the Hamilton Green project. In sum:
Hi - curious what is the membership is that you are most willing to die on a hill for because you use it all the time for your family. Is it a specific museum? Zoo? Gym? Costco? Something else?
In case it matters, I live near White Plains and have a 5 year old.
Parking at HPN, full for our trip in January, any other options? Don't want to rrisk drive up garage
My cousin just bought a house in the historical district of new Rochelle. It hasn’t been lived in for a very long time and we want to hire a historian to look into it. Any recommendations?
