December brought groundbreaking and priceless events, and of course, fun holiday parties!

CELEBRATING THE HOLIDAY’S WITH THE BRONX OPERA

New Yorkers experienced great holiday shopping when they visited Bronx Terminal Market this December. There were a myriad of activities throughout Bronx Terminal Market including carolers from the Bronx Opera singing festive favorites, complimentary hot chocolate from Applebee’s, shoppers redeeming prizes from Coca-Cola, and families participating in The Home Depot Children's Workshop.

HUDSON YARDS GROUNDBREAKING

Last year, Related Companies announced Coach as the first retail tenant at Hudson Yards. This year, we produced the groundbreaking of Hudson Yards, heralded by Mayor Bloomberg as, “the future of New York.” This next great neighborhood will move the center of the city west with new residential and commercial space including a skyscraper taller than the Empire State Building, a new public school, cultural facility, and five-star hotel. The first building will be completed in 2015.  

A PRICELESS EVENING WITH MAD MUSEUM AND A VOCE COLUMBUS

Art, food, and wine aficionados participated in a curated tour of MAD Museum, followed by dinner at A Voce Columbus in Time Warner Center. After an exclusive curator-led tour of the Daniel Brush exhibit “Blue Steel Gold Light,” comprising four-decades of Brush’s work in paint, gold, steel and jewels, the night turned to the masterpieces of Missy Robbins, executive chef at A Voce. Guests indulged in the simplicity of delectable Italian cooking, elevated by exquisite wine pairings while taking in the beauty of an unseasonably warm December night.

MASTERCARD HOLIDAY COAT CHECK LOUNGE

During December MasterCard offered a complimentary coat and bag check service to Time Warner Center shoppers during the height of the holiday shopping season. At the lounge, shoppers also enjoyed specialty cocktails from Stone Rose Lounge, performances by Jazz at Lincoln Center, delicious tastings from O&CO., pastries from Bouchon Bakery & Café, and the chance to receive Time Warner Center’s Ultimate Gift Bag with treasures from Coach, C. Wonder, TUMI, and many more.

WINTER LAND COMES TO BRONX TERMINAL MARKET

We closed out the busy holiday season with an afternoon of season’s greetings brought to you by Coca-Cola®. Winter Land came to life at Bronx Terminal Market with a life-sized sleigh and holiday spirit in the air! Last-minute holiday shoppers were treated to festive photo-ops and free samples of Sprite Zero. A few lucky winners also took home New York Knicks tickets!

In 2012 our events were featured as "Best of" in The New York Times Style Section, Time Out New York, and various online and print publications. We are tremendously thankful for the opportunity to work with so many creative individuals. Here's to keeping it unique, fun, and fabulous in 2013!

Tis the Season to Go Shopping!

Here’s how we spent one of the busiest shopping seasons of the year…

On November 25th, we joined over 60,000 shoppers at Time Warner Center for Lucky Shops Black Friday. Lucky Magazine partnered with Time Warner Center and MasterCard to offer exclusive deals, free product samples, mini-makeovers, and so much more on the biggest shopping day of the year!

Later that month we launched Time Warner Center’s Holiday Under the Stars with a private cocktail party at the MasterCard Holiday Star Lounge on the second floor of Time Warner Center. Delicacies included grilled shrimp skewers, quail eggs, mac and cheese balls! Through January 3rd, shoppers can enjoy this must-see holiday attraction featuring music by Wynton Marsalis and an all-star band including members of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.

The MasterCard Holiday Star Lounge at Time Warner Center opened earlier this month to provide special fashion and foodie offerings from The Shops at Columbus Circle as well as the Restaurant and Bar Collection at Time Warner Center to MasterCard cardholders during the busy shopping season. Shoppers relaxed and indulged in complimentary gift-wrapping after a long day of shopping, saving them time and making their holiday shopping experience enjoyable!

Heading over to another borough, we produced a three-part holiday event series at Bronx Terminal Market on December 3rd, 10th, and 17th featuring free hot chocolate and holiday caroling throughout the shopping center. Shoppers also had the opportunity to donate gently used coats to New York Cares at drop boxes located outside of Applebee’s at Bronx Terminal Market.

We are thankful for a bustling fun year and look forward to the amazing new projects 2012 will bring!

Happy Holidays!
