Stay cool!

Applecorehotels_snowflakeWith the summer heat taking off below are a few places to stay cool in New York City:
Russian Turkish Baths: Head to the basement to the ice cold pool.  The entrance fee is well worth it once you take a dip in the freezing cold pool
Rusty Knot: Try one of Rusty Knot’s blended namesake cocktails, which tastes like a frozen Mojito. Take a seat next to the fish tank and enjoy prime people watching
The Gutter: at Willimsburg’s bowling alley the air conditioning and a pleasant handful of beers on tap will keep you cool
