    Great vlog as always. Being a Manhattanite myself I love the new stuff you highlight that I didn't even know about in some cases. I'll just add one of my favorite new places as of the last few months is an amazing intimate craft cocktail bar called The Owls Tail on W 75th across from the Beacon Theater. Not only has outta this world cocktails & ambiance but they have a staff that is consistently putting forth 101% service & hospitality. If you guys find yourself in the UWS one evening I highly recommend checking it out.

    I absolutely love the Transit Museum. I went for the first time last year and I want to hit it again for their new displays. I wanted to go this year, but it didn't pan out. However, since I am a NYTM member, I am finally getting a tour of the original City Hall Station. Very excited. Believe it or not, this was my first year visiting Central Park. I had to go there twice just to get through the whole Park. Loved it. Fort Tryon Park looks like will be on my list of things to see next summer. 😉

    Great tips...May i add to take the M 4 Bus , which runs along Madison Ave, up through Harlem into Washington Heights and stops directly in front of the Cloisters Museum within Ft Tryon Park. Within Inwood Hill Park, a few blocks north, is the site where Peter Minuit "purchased" Manhatta from the Lenape-Algonquin Native American Indians and is adjacent to Columbia University's Football Field at 218th St off Broadway.

    I was VERY happy to see you opened this video with a description of Fort Tryon Park! It really spectacular and most New Yorkers don't even know about it. You didn't mention that it was also the sight of an extremely important battle in the American Revolution. It's the best spot to spend a beautiful Spring day in NYC!

    @stephenbacks3100 3 года назад +1

    Love the Cloisters and surrounding park. Be sure to bring picnic food, as the restaurant in the Cloisters is a bit pricey. I’d also recommend the Queens County Farm Museum.
    My wife was at Sloan- Kettering Hospital for cancer treatment about two and a half years ago. As a teacher, I was able to bring our sons for the summer, and we stayed with friends in Forest Hills (another great neighborhood). Sadly, my wife lost her battle, but I have taken the boys back since. As a family, and even before the kids, we’ve visited New York at least 25 times during all seasons. It’s one of our favorite spots.

As it is our first time in NYC we will be doing all the touristy bits such as the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Times Square and the observation decks of Empire State Building, Top of the Rock and World Trade Center. Got lots of other stuff planned and will be doing a few trips to Brooklyn.

    ignore that over-crowded and silly brooklyn bridge, take the manhattan bridge instead. also get up to washington heights and cross into new jersey on the gee-dub.

      There's a sign in Heather Gardens which reads " Let no one say and say it to your shame, that all was beauty here until you came"..

      Lol nope. As far as finding people or doing it yourself. Washington Square is a great place to watch performers.

    If you want something different in terms of food try the Chinatowns in Manhattan, Brooklyn, or queens. Mike Chen has good videos on these places especially if you want to try hot pot.

      Yes, absolutely .

      Also try the weekend street food market at the Red Hook soccer fields. The usual fare is Latin American fare from all over, sometimes even Caribbean stuff. Even fresh ceviche.

    What i don't like about both the Williamsburg and Manhattan Bridge is that there's no police presence on either bridge..At least on the Brooklyn Bridge, there are usually two manned patrol cars...however, i've never had any negative experiences walking either bridge...
