BEST PIZZA IN NYC. I mean it. Jay Z and Beyonce are regulars here and have told the press it's their favorite pizza place multiple times. However, it's the most hole-in-the-wall as they come - ten tables, cash only, byob. It'll be a long wait but luckily the apartment is less than a ten minute walk! Put your name in early in the evening, check out of a few local bars or have a glass of wine at the apartment while you wait. It's worth it, I promise!

Old elevated train line turned walking path, you can go all the way through Chelsea to Midtown. It's really well designed with a lot of cool accents and nooks with great views of various parts of the city.

Sightseeing

Adorable old fishing town that has become very posh and eclectic. You can take the water taxi from here to lower Manhattan, and you'll see the Statue of Liberty on your ride! You can also get a great view of the statue from Louis Valentino Jr. park.
