Timeline
15:10
Grab a pastrami sandwich at Katz's Delicatessen. It is busy, so order quickly and take it to go.
16:00
Walk to Anthology Film Archives. The building is closed, but the historic exterior on East 2nd Street catches the low sun beautifully. Stand on the southeast corner for the best view of the light hitting the facade.
16:53
Watch the sunset glow fade from the street corner. The light shifts from warm gold to blue as the day ends.
17:23
Walk 14 minutes to The Bitter End in Greenwich Village. It is a historic coffeehouse and folk venue. Order a drink and sit in as the evening settles in.
Local tip
Katz's is open until 22:15 on weekdays, so you have plenty of time. The Bitter End opens at 19:00, which fits perfectly after the sunset.
