A Letter from the Mayor

Dear Friends:

As temperatures dip, autumn turns the City’s abundant foliage to brilliant , providing a beautiful backdrop to the five boroughs.

Neighborhoods like Fort Greene in , Snug Harbor on , City in and Arthur Avenue in are rich in the cultural diversity for which the City is famous. Enjoy strolling through these communities as well as among the more than 700 acres of new parkland added in the past decade.

Fall also means it is time for favorite holidays. Every October, NYC streets come alive with ghosts, goblins and revelry along during ’s Village Halloween Parade. The pomp and pageantry of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in November make for a high-energy holiday spectacle. And in early December, ’s signature tree lights up and beckons to the area’s shoppers and ice-skaters.

The season also offers plenty of relaxing options for anyone seeking a break from the holiday hustle and bustle. Find apple and pumpkin picking at the Queens County Farm , learn about the engineering and design marvels that make NYC a of amazing architecture during monthlong “Archtober” and visit our many arts institutions—from Jazz at to BAM’s Next Wave Festival, where legends and up-and-coming young talent perform.

For information about these events and more, visit nycgo.com all year long. Have a fantastic fall in City, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Sincerely,

Michael R. Bloomberg Mayor

Sightseeing & Tours

If you want your photo album (or Instagram feed) to overflow with incredible shots, New York City is the place to visit. The five boroughs’ sights and scenes make for some of the most striking images. Seeing the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and the skyline views from the Empire State Building and Top of the Rock observation decks never fail to inspire a sense of awe. For a tranquil escape— and more photo opportunities—saunter through Prospect or Central Park. And if you’d like an insider perspective on the City’s many neighborhoods and cultures, try a guided tour by foot, bus or even helicopter. You’ll find tour and attraction listings, along with money-saving discounts, in this section. nycgo.com/toursandattractions Sightseeing & Tours

Museums & Galleries

One might argue that New York City is one giant museum in and of itself. From installations in unexpected places to commissioned murals and sculptures dotting the City’s parks and transit system, there’s something new to discover with every turn. Attend gallery shows from up-and- coming artists or get lost in the halls of the City’s most famous institutions. The five boroughs are a great place for kids to get cultured, too; the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, Staten Island Children’s Museum and Children’s Museum of the Arts are just a few options for younger visitors. And if you’d rather start small, you’re in luck— head down to TriBeCa for Museum, a 60-square- foot, single-exhibit museum for art at a glance. nycgo.com/museums-and-galleries

Nightlife

New York is known for its nightlife—and rightfully so. The city that never sleeps offers evenings of DJs spinning eclectic sets, all-night dance parties and even a chance to sing your heart out at late-night karaoke. New York City is chock-full of after-dark entertainment, from swanky cocktail lounges to rock ‘n’ roll dens to intimate jazz clubs. Head to Times Square for karaoke and comedy, Chelsea for rooftop lounges and dancing, and the Lower East Side for live music. Sip on pumpkin in Brooklyn, scope out the fashionable crowd in the Meatpacking District or spend the evening sipping sake in Queens. If you’re looking for it, NYC can indulge your nightlife needs.

Fall brings the exciting conclusion of baseball season in the Bronx and Queens for the Mets and Yankees, as well as the climax of the Red Bulls’ quest for the Major League Soccer title. Also in the autumn, the Knicks and Nets tip off their NBA slates in Manhattan and Brooklyn, respectively, while the Jets and Giants face their NFL opponents at MetLife Stadium (which, by the way, is set to host the Super Bowl this season). And in the ING New York City Marathon, professionals and amateurs run together, if not precisely side by side, for 26.2 miles through all five boroughs. You can also break a sweat at facilities like Chelsea Piers and in parks citywide. And spas around the City can help you relax after a day of sightseeing, recover from a night on the town or refresh before an evening of theater.
