Super Bowl Cocktails at Newly Opened Lounge, The Skylark, in New York City

As Super Bowl XLVIII quickly approaches and New York City serves as the host for the biggest sports event of the year, residents and visitors will be walking Super Bowl Boulevard (Broadway between 34th and 47th Streets) en masse.  Just one block away but high above the Boulevard, guests can take a break at The Skylark, a newly opened lounge with a view that stretches from the Empire State Building to the home of MET Life stadium.
