Photograph the NYC Skyline from JFK Boulevard East
The Big Apple. NYC has arguably the best skyline in the world. So, if you are one of the millions of people visiting wouldn't you want to get some photos of the entire skyline to post on social media and show friend & family?

The bike path is the same path that you will use as a pedestrian as there ...

The ferry departs Manhattan from ...
Run the Hudson River Greenway
To get in both some sights and a workout, follow the Hudson River Greenway to views of the Statue of Liberty, the Chelsea Piers, and George Washington Bridge, to name a few.
This easy-access run is best done in the early morning or early evening, to avoid pedestrian traffic and too much sun. Keep an eye out for cyclists who may share the road at certain sections.
You can start anywhere along th...
