One of the best plates of pierogi in New York comes out of a former church. I did not see that coming, and honestly, it feels a little perfect for food this comforting. Eastern European cooking has always felt a little sacred to me, like a family ritual. Recipes like these crossed oceans in someone’s memory, and they still taste like home to the families who carried them.
For Billy Joel, New York is more than just a place. It's an inextricable part of what makes the singer who he is. "My speech patterns are New York. The music that I like, it was all New York–based. That's what I think of when I think of home," he said in his 2025 HBO documentary Billy Joel: And So It Goes. "It's my roots."
A healthy-looking tree in full leaf can drop nearly its whole canopy in about a month, in the middle of summer. No storm, no drought, just green and bronze leaves piling up on the lawn in July. I didn’t expect a culprit this small to cause that much trouble. A...

A day-long Southern Tier Greenways Planning Summit, hosted by Parks & Trails New York, took stock of the greenway trail plans already in motion across the region and tackled what it will take to link them into a connected regional network. The event, held Nov. 5 at the Corning Museum of Glass, focused on the eight-county Southern Tier Regional Economic Development region, which includes Steuben, Schuyler, Chemung, Tompkins, Tioga, Broome, Chenango and Delaware counties. The event paired project updates from local and regional partners with hands-on working sessions on the challenges and opportunities ahead. Kamala Keeley, President of Three Rivers Development Corporation, said trails, waterways and parks aren't amenities on the side; they're part of what makes a region a place people choose to build a life. “When our employers recruit engineers, nurses, and skilled trades, candidates want to know what life looks like outside of work," Keeley said. "Every connected mile of trail strengthens our answer, and it helps us keep the talented people who are already here.” Keeley said the Southern Tier is losing population, particularly residents who are between 25 and 44 years old.

Breakfast at one country diner can cost less than a fancy coffee, and I love that math. The doors open at 5 AM, so early birds can dig in before most alarms even ring. Getting to places like that usually means leaving the busy lakeside traffic far behind you. You’ll roll down quiet county roads between the lakes, where the towns seem to get smaller with every mile.
Aquarium of Niagara’s rescued seal predicts just how much WNY will need to bundle up. For the seventh year in a row, the Aquarium of Niagara turned to its unique, in-house weather prognosticator to deliver this year’s winter weather outlook: Stryker, the rescued harbor seal.

Thin-sliced roast beef, a salty caraway roll, and a smear of horseradish make up one of the most loved sandwiches in New York. Beef on weck is a Western New York classic, and the best versions come from taverns, diners, and butcher-style counters that have been perfecting it for years.
