Just a head's up, there will be a pride parade in NYC today. I wouldn't recommend taking boys anywhere in the city

It's pride week and the big parade is today Sunday. Stay away from Manhattan and the subway system. It can get crushing.

An oldie but a goody-- I took my 10 1/2 year old in a "date " last week to see the museum of natural history and for pizza. I had wracked my brain trying to think of something new and exciting, but in the end thos made most srnse logistically and we both had a blast. He particularly loved the animal dioramas and the oceans exhibit. We left feeling that we would love to come back soon.

Governor's Island would be perfect, and you can take the ferry from Brooklyn if you want to avoid Manhattan. The Manhattan ferry leaves from near Battery Park, which will probably also be clear of the parade, but check the parade route to confirm.

Kushner Cos. has begun evicting its second-largest tenant from a Times Square tourism property, endangering at least $285 million of loans backed by rents there.

Lenders approved the termination of the lease for the tenant, Gulliver’s Gate, at the end of last year, according to debt filings. The attraction, which exhibits miniature models of Manhattan and other world cities and landmarks, accounted for more than a fifth of the property’s rent-roll but hadn’t been paying since November, the filings show.

Kushner Cos. -- owned by the family of Jared Kushner, the White House senior adviser and son-in-law of President Donald Trump -- is seeking tenants for the space, but “there have been no firm” letters of intent, according to the records.

Quote:
Bloomberg reported in November that the tenants were showing signs of financial stress. Gulliver’s Gate faced several lawsuits for nonpayment of various fees, and the National Geographic exhibit had been fighting with Kushner Cos. over payments since August.

Together, those top two tenants were expected to account for nearly half of the building’s rent inflows, according to a 2016 estimate disclosed to potential investors in Deutsche Bank’s share of the debt. Kushner Cos. took out more than $370 million of debt against the six-floor property, which it had bought for $296 million a year earlier.
