mad about nyc

As you no doubt already know, Mad Men is AMC's critically acclaimed series about the glamour, fashion and lifestyles of New York's top advertising executives in the early 1960s. In real life, the days of three-martini lunches and desk-side scotch cabinets might be (sadly) long gone, but the men and women of Sterling Cooper could easily indulge their refined tastes in modern-day New York at a number of elegant restaurants, classy shops and sophisticated nightclubs. To prep yourself for the premiere of season three (on August 16), pack it in early at the office, straighten your tie clip and discover these alluring (and still current) elements of New York's past.
