The Proper Blog

Last Thursday, I found myself at the Hudson Terrace on West 46th and 12th.

When you know you need a drink, but can’t stand the claustrophobic feeling of an underground pub, this is a good place to go.  You can hang out at the bar or get your own bottle/table – it’s laid out so that both options work nicely.  This is one of just a few nice roof top lounges in Manhattan that I’m aware of (btw – why aren’t there lounges on every rooftop?).  Drinks weren’t cheap, but you don’t expect them to be.  I got there around sunset and only expected to stay a few hours, but somehow the party lasted till 2 in the morning… funny how Jameson shots, Ketel One, and attractive women make that happen.   Had a great time.  Polite conversation became dancing on tables and strangers became couples friends.

Go there and stay proper.
