After more than a year away from beaches, bar crawls and movies under the stars, vaccinated New Yorkers are ready to re-enter the world. To help readers maximize their summer fun — and stay on top of evolving public health guidance — The New York Times is reviving its weekly Summer in the City newsletter. Created in 2018 by Elisabeth Goodridge, now the deputy editor for Travel, and Jessica Anderson, deputy editorial director for newsletters, as a curated guide to summer fun for New Yorkers, the newsletter went on hiatus last year. But the new edition is now published every Wednesday, with event ideas through Labor Day.
