OHNY Landscapes

Open House New York (OHNY), which celebrates its 15th anniversary this year, is taking place on Saturday, October 14 and Sunday, October 15. Listings are online and advance reservations for ticketed events start today at 11am. Here are a baker's dozen recommendations that require reservations, all of them landscapes, one in each borough and one on Randall's Island (technically part of Manhattan but here treated differently).
