Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's New York City: A Pop Culture Pilgrimage New York City, a city that never sleeps, has long been a backdrop for countless films and a playground for celebrities. The Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley, have a particular connection to the city, having spent time there during their careers and personal lives. A recent video on social media has highlighted some of the key locations in the city associated with the twins, offering a unique glimpse into their New York adventures. One of the locations featured is the plaza below Grand Army Plaza at 59th Street and 5th Avenue. This is where a memorable scene from their movie "New York Minute" was filmed, showing the twins emerging from porta-potties in "I ♥ NY" shirts. The video encourages viewers to recreate this iconic photo. Another location highlighted is Harry Cipriani, an Italian restaurant near Central Park, where Mary-Kate and Ashley celebrated their 33rd birthday. The video also points out Liberty Bagels, known for its rainbow bagels, as a nearby alternative for those not interested in fine dining. The video further guides viewers to 1 Morton Street in the West Village, the site of a penthouse the Olsen twins renovated but never lived in. This location adds a touch of celebrity real estate intrigue to the tour. Finally, the video concludes at (SUB)MERCER, a lounge in the city, rumored to be where Mary-Kate gave Kanye West a lap dance at his birthday party. While Kanye later claimed it was Ashley, the video leaves the mystery open, adding a touch of playful speculation. The video is a fun and informative guide for fans of the Olsen twins and anyone interested in exploring the pop culture history of New York City.
