Goodbye August
A huge THANK YOU to everyone that came out to our final Upper West Side Summer Social Hour last night at Bottega Pizzeria Ristorante! It was a huge success with over 80 people attending! The private room, private bar, special menu, and staff at Bottega all exceeded our expectations! We even had a special guest appearance from our neighbor and congressional candidate Dr. Hiral Tipernini! How cool is that? We can’t tell you how much it means for us to have been able to fill every venue this Summer for our Social Hour Events. It shows that Upper West Siders CAN and WILL come out to SUPPORT LOCAL and get involved in their community and that’s what this movement is all about!

Thank you to our Platinum and Gold COMMUNITY PARTNERS that spoke and attended last night:
- Robyn Halperin from Robyn’s Nest
- Susan Ramsey and The Ramsey Team at Keller Williams Realty
- Lindsay Taylor from Sinful Blow Dry Bar
- Melissa Welker from Matriarch Salon
Mark your calendar for the next Robyn’s Nest Ladies Night Sip & Shop next week Thursday, 8/30 from 4-7pm. It’s always fun to gather your girlfriends and shop with a glass of bubbly and a bite to eat! Robyn’s Nest will also be having a lot of fun HOLIDAY events so please check out our calendar page for details in the future! When our Facebook page hits 6,000 followers we have a great set of cactus vases to giveaway from Robyn's Nest as well. All you have to do to enter is like/follow our page and the Robyn’s Nest Facebook page and tag a friend in our giveaway post from 8/10. We’re only about 60 followers away!
Did you know Susan Ramsey and The Ramsey Team have been working as realtors in the Arrowhead area since the 80’s?!?! Wow! No one knows this area like they do! Make sure you’re using an expert realtor with knowledge of the area and a great skillset when it comes time to buy or sell. Too many people use their “friend the realtor” and that can be a big mistake when you’re talking about such a huge purchase and a long-term investment.
We are so excited that Lindsay Taylor is opening the FIRST BLOW DRY BAR on the Upper West Side! Sinful Blow Dry Bar is slated to open in 2-3 months at 83rdAve. & Lake Pleasant Parkway in the plaza with Planet Beach, Goodwill, etc. In the meantime, you can visit her for all your hair needs in her suite at DC Salon Suites near Arrowhead Grill.
CONGRATULATIONS to all of our prize winners! Thank you to all the businesses that donated the awesome PRIZES for us to give away! Many of these businesses are also located in the Citadelle Plaza with Bottega:
- Joyce K Acupcuncture (located in the Citadelle in Indulge Med Spa)
- Matriarch Hair Salon (located in the Citadelle in Vivaldi Salon Suites)
- Pure Barre (located in the Citadelle on the south side)
- Robyn’s Nest
- Signatures Invitations & Gifts
- Sinful Blow Dry Bar
- Skin Addict
- Mythic Brews Cold Brew Coffee
- Starbucks Gift Card from Academy Mortgage
Please support the businesses that support us! They live and/or work in our community and their partnerships help keep this movement going so we can fight for the development we deserve as the voice of the Upper West Side!
We are in the process of planning our Fall/Winter events! SAVE THE DATE, Thursday 9/27 from 6-8pm for a Ladies Night of shopping! Details coming in the next few days and be on the lookout for more events after that! We hope to host Yoga In The Park, Taste Of The Upper West Side, and a Holiday Wine Tasting! Cheers!
