Come for the movies and dancing in the summer, stick around for the ice skating in the winter.
An oasis that's way uptown. Central Park : the Upper West and East sides as Fort Tryon Park : Washington Heights, Hudson Heights, and Inwood.
This is one of the most gorgeous places uptown. If you like medieval art, make the trek uptown. Make a day of it!
The architecture is outstanding. During the holidays, there's a beautiful tree and sometimes a choir!
Come for the special exhibitions, but also be sure to see the Ancient Greek/Roman art, the modern art, arms & armor, and the European paintings.
Cute little place with a friendly cat hanging around! There's a nice garden out back too.
I grew up going here. It's a super cool place. If they still do their Friday performance series on the roof, go!
Good for a late night brew and burger. Also the fries are dope. So is the bartender: a classic NYC kinda guy.
Great burgers and beer. Sometimes, there's also awesome live music: I saw a killer jazz band there
Come here and rock climb! There are spots for bouldering all over. Try Rat Rock in the southwest end of the park.
Get your friend with a membership to take you. I love the photography area.
Go watch the space show… because you're obviously just there to hear Neil deGrasse Tyson nerd out about stars, right?
The planetarium is my favorite place in NYC. Pricey, but worth it. 🌛🌞💥✨💫🌠
Colorful + spacious outdoor seating, which was filled with a diverse crowd. It's also solar-powered, so feel less guilty about how fast you're powering through the grilled corn & the rice + beans.
Authentic and delicious thin crust pizza here. Get a pie with mushrooms and you're golden!
Head down the basement for a no-frills, delicious experience. Huge portions that are unlike anything else you're used to. It's open late too, so come with the drunchies.
