Parks & Nature

I love walking the highline on my morning commute to work. You will love it because it is a scenic walk that gets you off the streets of NY and drops you off right at Chelsea Market!

Food Scene

While Friedman's is closer to my apartment, I prefer Rustic Table for my weekend brunches as it is a more intimate restaurant

When you are in New York you have to try a true New York bagel, and this is the best one I have had so far!

Sightseeing

If you are going to come to NY you have to visit Times Square at least once. But avoid this area in terms of food, the better stuff is South!

Entertainment & Activities

It's a little far away from my apartment. But I highly recommend taking the subway down to the World Trade Center memorial, then walking across the Brooklyn Bridge, getting some pizza in Brooklyn, and then making the return trip over the Manhattan Bridge!

Shopping

Walk the High Line down starting at my apartment and you will end up right at Chelsea market, where there is a great mix of food, clothes, and local art!
