One of the best things about living in New York is the fact that the city has no shortage of live entertainment and cinemas showing everything from the newest releases to cult classics. However, over the next few weeks, people will be glued to their TV sets: The Super Bowl airs on February 2, and the Oscars are on a week later (February 9). Throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn, some lucky residents need only take the elevator to an elevated experience. We explore screening rooms fit for a Super Bowl champion and second only to the Dolby Theater.

Brooklyn Point is home to the Western Hemisphere's highest infinity pool in a residential building, and an outdoor movie screening area is on the pool deck. It's a little cold for that now, but over 40,000 square feet of indoor amenities include a screening and performance room. And if residents are very lucky, maybe Dekalb Market Hall will cater the big game and the awards show.
