There
is more to the Bronx than Yankee Stadium and the Zoo! The entire Briggs
Team discovered some hidden treasures on our continuing “incentives begin
at home” program where Briggs recognizes outstanding service from our
freelance staff.
On
a steamy August afternoon, the esteemed Bronx Borough Historian, Lloyd
Ultan, guided us along on The Grand Concourse known as the “Champs-Élysées”
of the Bronx. This grand boulevard is lined with some of the city’s most
exquisite art deco housing and historic sites (see pictures below).
Following
this informative excursion, we all enjoyed a multi-course lunch in the
Little Italy section of the Bronx at the highly-rated Zagat restaurant,
Zero Otto Nove.
Of
course, there was time for shopping afterwards for freshly baked breads,
Italian pastries and hand-made mozzarella. So come on up and discover the
Bronx for yourself. Take an afternoon historic or gastronomic tour, or hold
an incentive meeting or evening gala.
Everyone
should know the Bronx; that’s where I was born!
