Drinks & Nightlife

This is likely the best cocktail bar in NYC. It is expensive, fancy, and boasts an incredible cocktail menu. If the weather is nice, try to get a table in the backyard. Finally, trust their judgement with cocktails. They won't let you down.

Parks & Nature

I love this park. It's never busy, and has this great long pier that stretches out into the East River. Grab a coffee from Ovenly, a nearby bakery, before relaxing and enjoying the view.
