No More Construction!


After more than a year, the Metropolitan Museum of Art's exterior is finally clear of the fences that blocked the north end of the stairs. Unblemished, its magnanimity is restored (magnanimity : the quality of being magnanimous : loftiness of spirit enabling one to bear trouble calmly, to disdain meanness and pettiness, and to display a noble generosity — this word popped into my head, and it turns out, it truly reflects my feelings about the Met).

Perhaps the characters of Gossip Girl will return to the Met to have their lunch on its steps?

  2. (Unfortunately) I haven't seen them because the steps have been under construction since I started going to the Met. I hope they do start filming there again though!

    I did walk by the Palace Hotel while they were filming, and I've met part of the cast at an event. I also passed by Connor Paolo in the subway a couple weeks ago.
