After much anticipation, today marked the official beginning of summer and with it came perfect weather that we couldn’t have wish better for in the city. To commemorate, New Yorkers honored the day in all kinds of cool ways. Many hit the city’s beaches and boardwalks, others got their workout on in Times Square, and some kept it simple and enjoyed a refreshingly cool snack. We’ve rounded up the best odes to the first day of summer that we could find and even threw in a couple of throwbacks. Times may change but the desire to get out and enjoy summer in New York City doesn’t.
