#OHNYwknd is the one time each year when the public is allowed to climb the 149 steps to the top of the Jefferson Market Library's stunning Venetian Gothic tower to take in its sweeping 360-degree views of #GreenwichVillage. Don't miss your chance this year—make sure to arrive early, as the lines quickly stretch around the block for this perennial Weekend favorite! #DailyReveal
