The city that never sleeps has its name for a reason; there's always something to do or see. But there are ways to enjoy your time in without spending all your time dashing from place to place snapping selfies 🤳🏼
In case you didn't know, Ross lived in New York for 4 years so is our expert when it comes to making the most of a city stay. Below are some top tips & recommendations on what to do and how to enjoy your adventure;
𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸 - visiting the park is great, but turn it into a stroll with a coffee & croissant. It's great to see locals jogging or going about their morning routine
𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗲 - of course, you have to see Times Square. Use the opportunity to get in the queue at TKTS to grab some discounted tickets
𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 - this nature walk up the western blocks of the city is a great way to explore. You can start at Hudson Yards & The Vessel and head south at your own pace. Beautiful with spring in bloom and some super cool apartments along the way
𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲𝗮 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 - after you've walked The High Line, head into Chelsea Market and grab a bite. There's lots of cool artisan stalls, boutique stores, galleries, etc. Friedman's for lunch and Sarabeth's are always super popular
𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻, 𝗕𝗿𝘆𝗮𝗻𝘁, 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗼𝗻 - no, these aren't Presidents, they're parks. You need to take a breather as you explore, so grab a bagel and head to these parks & squares in the city to watch the world go by. There's usually doggo's playing too!
𝗔𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄 - if you want to see the cityscape, there's plenty of observation deck options; One World Observatory, Rockefeller, Empire State, EDGE, Summit One... but for something special, take a doors-off helicopter flight over the city
𝗪𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗩𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗲, 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗣𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 - there's no shortage of shopping opportunities, from big brands to boutiques and thrift stores. Check out these areas along with Tribeca for some cool independent shops
𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗹𝘆𝗻 𝗕𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 - there are endless places to eat & drink across the city, but head to for brunch one day. You can even explore DUMBO first or catch an ice hockey game at the Barclays Centre
