Step back in time at Wink & Nod, a new South End speakeasy-style cocktail lounge. Located at 3 Appleton St., the dimly lit spot features drinks inspired by the Prohibition era—although we doubt you would have found a bright green cocktail served in a fish-shaped vessel in the 1920s.

Nike on Newbury Street is reopening with a brand-new design befitting a city as sports-obsessed as Boston. The new “multi-category brand experience” store is only the 12th of its kind in the United States.

Though he’s perhaps best known for his work in the U.K., Simon Amstell's U.S. fan base is growing quickly, and with good reason. The comedian offers a dark and self-deprecating mix of personal anecdotes, failings, and philosophical discussion that are at once relatable and shamelessly funny. We chatted with him at home in London as he was preparing to hop across the pond; see him at the Wilbur Theatre on April 19.

Not too long ago, Boston native Nick MacDonald was working at Dunkin' Donuts when he was discovered by Hotel Commonwealth's then-director of operations. Working on a hunch that MacDonald would be a natural in the hotel industry, he offered him a job—and the rest is history.

 On Marathon Monday in 2013, Richard “Dic” Donohue was just another man in uniform, working as a transit police officer for the city of Boston. One year later, he’s become a symbol of survival after being struck during a shoot-out in Watertown between police and Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

 The Boston Marathon began its trek through the streets of the city in 1897, making it the oldest annual marathon in the world. Though the race originally started in Ashland, in 1925, it was moved to the corner of Ash Street and East Main Street in Hopkinton in order to conform to new Olympic standards set by Queen Alexandria and King Edward VII.
