I lay out here in the summers. People watching by day and star gazing by night. Beautiful. You can have a picnic, take a boat ride, have a meal, sun bathe, cycle, or just read a novel.

Great night life here. There’s so many options open at night. Eateries (Melbas, Sylvias, Corner Social), Lounges, and Jazz! Live bands anyone??! Street parking is tight, but with some patience you will find a spot.

Subway system
If traveling on the subways try to travel when it isn’t rush hour. It can be brutal finding seats and for little people it can be frightening. For safety - My recommendation would be to sit in the first car because the Motorman is in that car and the middle because the Conductor is in that car. You can find the conductor prior to the train pulling in by looking above your head for a black and white board- he will always be aligned with that board.
Hvað á að taka með
Sightseeing gear
A back pack, waters, a portable charger, subway map, good tennis shoes, and a positive attitude.

Farmers market at Prospect Park- Saturday’s year round 8-4
I’d take a stroll in the park first and then grab some cider, homemade jam, cookies, and cakes. You can head across the street and have a seat in front of the Library. There’s several tables and benches outdoors.
