Despite their country origins, these rustic tables are beloved by city slickers for their rough-hewn looks and seeming indestructibility. Builder Tony Garcia’s business is centered in rural Pennsylvania, where he repurposes century-old barn wood—but more than half his clients are New Yorkers (including Edie Falco and James Gandolfini). The best fit for a cramped, overpriced apartment? The 30-by-48-inch New Yorker, with tuck-away folding panels on each end ($550).
Best Tables
From the 2007 Best of New York issue of New York Magazine
Our mission this year: to hunt down not just the best but the best values in the eating, shopping, drinking, and general-consuming universe of New York. It’s quite the process, this, requiring eating and shopping and drinking (all in the name of research), followed by heated but civil discussion, and heated but less-civil discussion, until a winner emerges in each category.
