Squash in the City!

It’s always a surprise to see the businesses that can fit in a NYC skyscraper. In a nondescript office building in the middle of a nondescript Midtown block with barely any signage, there happens to be a top-of-art squash facility 5 floors in the air. Who knew? Thankfully Quantbot did, and that’s where we had our latest intern outing. Interns faced company employees, and each other, to see who’s squashing was the best. Some went all out, while others ate and drank where squash happened to be playing. Either way it was fun!

Dumplings, Pizza, and Knishes…Oh My!

This week our summer interns had the opportunity to go on a walking history and food tour of Lower Manhattan. Starting at the African Burial Ground National Monument, we then walked through Foley Square to get to Chinatown, where we stopped for our first food stop, fried dumplings.

Starting the tour in front of the African Burial Ground

Crossing over Canal Street, we walked through Little Italy, and after a sit down pizza break, we continued the tour toward the Bowery and the Lower East Side, where we tasted knishes from a Jewish bakery that’s over 100 years old. In each neighborhood we learned about the lives of African, Irish, Chinese, Italian and Jewish immigrants in NYC, their trials and triumphs moving to a new home and how they in turn shaped the city and the country.

Finishing off our tour at a German beer garden, we hope the interns got a chance to see and appreciate some of the many iconic neighborhoods New York has to offer. At the very least they certainly got plenty to eat!

Quantbot Members Scale New Heights at a Rockin’ Outing!

Last month, a few team members from our London office participated in an enjoyable bouldering outing. Nuo, a DTL member, visited the London office to work and engage in valuable team bonding. The outing was not only fun but also helped strengthen team relationships. The team is enthusiastic about future opportunities to challenge themselves both mentally and physically!
