  There's a Shake Shack a block and half away. Get there before the lunch rush and you're golden.

  Sit upstairs in a cushy chair with a view of the river and trees and read an amazing poem from the latest annual collection.

  A national poetry library and literary center that invites poets and the public to step into the living tradition of poetry. Don't miss it!

  An amazing place to read poetry, write or simply reflect while relaxing in comfy chairs overlooking the Hudson River!

  “And if you’re trying to describe a institution like Poets House,/…With a library, an auditorium, exhibition space, and reading rooms,/…Ordinary prose will not do.” –Ian Frazier

  Search the stacks for poetry publishers' latest titles: 2000+ new books annually, micropresses beside commercial publishers, a poetic smorgasbord that's not to be missed.

  Jonesing for a rare chapbook or magazine, but don't have the collegiate funding to buy a subscription or issue? Swing by - they've got lots of love to give.

  The best far-downtown place to read, write, or (duh) find great poetry, the brand-new Poets House is free and open to the public.
