New York is NOT made for dining outdoors. Street-side garbage, loud traffic and rats are 3 (occasionally true) stereotypes that make the concept unappealing. Nonetheless, businesses have been shaking things up to bring in more diners. Read about the temporary architecture of outdoor dining on @curbed .
