Great Escape: Americana Manhasset

Your teens are holding a car wash at the high school Saturday. The grandparents volunteered to take the younger children to a movie Sunday afternoon. Your tweens take tap on Wednesday evening.  It’s your time. Take it.

Each week, we’ll tell you about one great idea to give you a much deserved break, and make your life a little easier; maybe a whole lot easier.

The Americana Manhasset on Northern Boulevard features an array of high-end stores for people to choose from. Gucci, Dior, Versace and Tiffany & C0. are just a few of the stores featured in this center.

If your wallet perhaps isn't wide enough to support some purchases at those stores, the Americana is also a pretty place to walk around and window shop. There is some interesting decor outside of some of the shops.

And if you wind up staying a while and get hungry, there are a handful of restaurants in the center as well as nearby on Northern Boulevard.

Happy shopping.
