Summer isn’t over yet! There are still plenty of beautiful evenings to spend outside with good friends, delicious food, and cold drinks. Nestled between Hanover Square and Broad Street, Stone Street is a historic, cobblestoned back alleyway turned happy hour heaven. Stone Street is the place to be in the Financial District for after work drinks and Friday night dinners, especially in the summer when the restaurants and bars set up tables on the street to create a vibrant, open outdoor dining space.
Platinum Properties, located only blocks away from Stone Street, is here with the ultimate guide to summer on Stone Street.
