When we visit the New York Tabletop Show next month, it's fun to think about what was there before. One hundred years ago, there was a giant entertainment complex across the street from 41 Madison: Madison Square Garden. Yes, that Madison Square Garden. Years later, it would move uptown.

Vista Alegre, which makes some killer designs, will be showing at the NY Tabletop show next week. We liked their Tableware Today ad inviting retailers to join them on Bridge—a smart way to grow one’s business network.
