The Magic of NYC in December December 23, 2024

⭐Being so close to New York City, our residence homes are able to take advantage of all the things Manhattan has to offer, especially during the holiday season. Our Ryer and Yorktown homes did exactly that; keep reading this article to see how they went out on the town!

⭐Team Ryer took 5th Ave by storm, visiting all the holiday window and light displays!

⭐Ryer also visited the iconic Rockefeller Christmas Tree, as well as some of the other major sites in that area, including St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Saks 5th Avenue.

⭐The ladies of Ryer also donned their best red outfits to wear as they enjoyed the city at night on the day of its annual SantaCon!

⭐Meanwhile, the men of our Yorktown residence looked picture perfect in their photobooth pictures taken at a holiday craft fair right outside New York City in Nyack.

⭐Yorktown also went out on the town, heading into Manhattan to play tourist, visiting places like the Louis Vuitton flagship store that has been designed to look like one of the brand’s signature trunk suitcases.
