One person’s favorite cobblestoned and distinctive buildings (apparently there’s some art alley is some developer’s idea of prime real estate. Bits of old inside, too). The Cathedral of St. John the Divine (Map New York disappear to differing amounts of fanfare and 18) has a very medieval vibe and is the world’s largest make room for whatever it is we’ll be romanticizing in the unfinished cathedral—a much cooler destination than the future. Ain’t that the circle of life? The landmarks discussed eternally crowded St. Patrick’s Cathedral (Map 12). are highly idiosyncratic choices, and this list is by no means complete or even logical, but we’ve included an array of places, from world famous to little known, all worth visiting.

Coolest Skyscrapers Head downtown to view City Hall (Map 3) (1812), Most visitors to New York go to the top of the Empire State Tweed Courthouse (Map 3) (1881), Jefferson Market Building (Map 9), but it’s far more familiar to New Yorkers Courthouse (Map 5) (1877—now a library), the Municipal from afar—as a directional guide, or as a tip-off to obscure Building (Map 3) (1914), and a host of other court- holidays (orange & white means it’s time to celebrate houses built in the early 20th century.

  • Realizing the Benefits of Hudson River Park the Promise of Hudson River Park
    ing the Be ealiz nef ts R of Hudson River Park This report was prepared by Regional Plan Association for Friends of Hudson River Park Photo: Hudson River Park Trust 2 | Realizing the Benefits of Hudson River Park The Promise of Hudson River Park By the 1980s, Manhattan’s Hudson River waterfront was largely a troubled landscape of barbed wire and decaying warehouses. Faced with sharp declines in maritime commerce, New Yorkers were given an opportunity to reimagine the city’s post-industrial waterfront. Through the efforts of the West Side Task Force (1986), the West Side Waterfront Panel (1990), the Hudson River Park Conservancy (1992), and a historic agreement between New York City and New York State (1998), New Yorkers committed to establishing a new waterfront park on the Hudson River. Today, at around seventy percent complete, Hudson River Park offers visitors iconic parkland, boat launches, sports facilities, and greenways. The park provides our region with a major public amenity and anchors the growing neighborhoods of Manhattan’s Far West Side. Though the park sustains its operations and maintenance costs through rents, concessions, grants, and donations, the park’s capital funding comes almost entirely from government appropriations – a source of funding that declined considerably following the Great Recession. Building off a previous 2008 study, The Impact of Hudson River Park on Property Values, this report shows that the critical investments made to build and sustain Hudson River Park have already generated significant dividends for New York City and New York State – beyond simply increasing property values – and helped to transform the entire Far West Side of Manhattan.

  • Measuring Neighborhood Parks Into the Hands of Local Experts
    A Citizen’s Guide A Citizen’s Measuring2 1Neighborhood Park3 Use4 Introduction New Yorkers for Parks (NY4P), in partnership with Bronx REACH CHAMPS, led by the Bronx Community Health Network, made this guide to help city residents measure how people use neighborhood parks. This guide builds on local expertise and puts the tools for measuring neighborhood parks into the hands of local experts. The guide allows anyone to collect and share information that can bring new resources to parks. The guide works with other advocacy tools provided by NY4P. Once you know what works and what does not work in your park, based on evidence collected through observing how people use a neighborhood park, you can make the case for change with local decision makers - from elected officials to parks staff. The contents of this guide are adapted from a formal study and process created by the RAND corporation called System for Observing Play & Recreation in Communities (SOPARC). Learn more: www.rand.org/health/surveys_tools/soparc.html How to use this tool This guide will teach you, and any other volunteer interested in studying how people use city parks, to do the following things: • Divide your neighborhood park into zones to study different uses • Measure how people are using the parts of your parks • Count the users that you observe, along with information about who they are • Understand the information you gather and how to share it • Improve things in your park using information gathered What is inside? The guide is divided into four sections that describe how to set up your study, who can help you, how to measure park usage, how to interpret what has been observed and what to do with the new information to improve your park.
