My heart goes out to Spitzer's family members, who have to endure publicly what others suffer privately. Nadia El-Badry, DOBBS FERRY...

...four-star establishments in this part of the city are Old World in style, the oldest thing you'll find at the Pulitzer is the white-and-gold Baroque reception desk, salvaged from a Sicilian church. The rest is straight out of a Modernist design book, but with added heart. The Picasso-like sketches and giant Miró-esque canvases create a very Spanish backdrop to a ground floor dedicated to the Catalunyan art of chilling. Spend the afternoon sinking into one of the white leather couches, sipping cocktails at the red Chinese-lacquer bar, or flipping through the collection...
