David Rockefeller's NYC Townhouse

For 70 years, David Rockefeller lived at 146 East 65th Street in Lenox Hill. The sprawling Manhattan mansion was bought by Doug and Lily Band, who gave the 100-year-old home a four-year renovation. Its 12,500-square-foot interior now boasts eight bedrooms and over ten bathrooms. The garden level was dug out to accommodate 10-foot ceilings and features a chef's kitchen, den, pantry, and laundry room. A dumbwaiter connects to an additional kitchen and attached dining room on the first floor. A living room on the parlor floor maintains its original knotted wood paneling and neighbors a golf simulator, while a basketball court is on the fourth floor. The four-story residence also offers 3,500 square feet of outdoor space, including an English garden, multiple terraces, and a rooftop deck.

Nike Alphafly 3 Road Racing Shoes

Running 26.2 miles is a lot different than tackling your local charity 5K. To accommodate the needs of marathon runners, Nike created the Alphafly line, now in its third generation. It employs two types of Zoom cushioning — a high-stack ZoomX foam midsole that encourages a smooth transition and Air Zoom units in the forefoot for an energy return boost. A wide, full-length carbon fiber Flyplate improves forward propulsion, and the breathable Atomknit 3.0 upper is paired with a lacing system designed with racer input to enhance comfort.

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra Robot Vacuum + Mop

With the S8 MaxV Ultra, Roborock ensures every inch of your house is clean. The new model features a Flexi Arm Design with an extendable side brush that reaches into corners, while an Extra Edge Mopping System cleans along edges. A Reactive AI 2.0 Obstacle Recognition uses a 3D structured light and an RGB camera to identify and avoid obstacles in its path, and a PreciSense LiDAR navigation system scans rooms to create a map and determine the most efficient route. It upgrades suction power to 10,000Pa to pick up even more dust and dirt, a Carpet+ Boost System ups the hair pick-up rate by 30%, and the mopping system scrubs floors 4,000 times per second, detecting carpets and rugs along the way. With built-in voice assistance, users can start cleaning with a simple command, and when the job is done, the vacuum will retreat to its dock to automatically empty, wash, dry, and recharge itself. The S8 MaxV Ultra will be available April 22, 2024, and for a limited time, get a triple gift pack valued at $1,000 with your purchase.

Boeing SST Model Framed Print

The winner of a government-funded contract to build an American supersonic jet, the Boeing SST 2707 was boldly ambitious. It was also an abject failure. Designed to carry between 250 and 300 passengers at speeds of up to Mach 3, it was much larger — and faster — than the Concorde, but left trails of sonic boom destruction in its wake. A curiosity of aviation history, a prototype model of the infamous aircraft is seen here, mounted in the Ames Wind Tunnel during testing. The photo is printed on Fuji crystal archive paper, numbered and certified, and comes encased inside a hand-made solid wood white or black frame that's ready to hang. Limited edition of 495.

Frame Sizes:

Medium / 16" x 20"
Large / 20" x 24"
