Description

Added by Margo Schmiederer

An exciting and historical part of the city to explore

Get a feel for what New York was like in the 19th century at the Seaport! The Seaport boasts some of the oldest buildings and architecture in Manhattan, and the area continues to bustle today. The Seaport borders the Financial District and the East River - so there are lots of wonderful sights to take in, in addition to great shopping, eateries, and entertainment.

Parking in New York is a nightmare, but you can take the 2 or the 3 subway to Fulton Street and walk a few blocks to the hub of the Seaport.

This is a great spot to practice your night photography - the city lights and river reflections create some pretty awesome landscapes...

Photograph Manhattan Bridge from Washington Street NYC

Located in DUMBO this is seen as one of of the prime photography spots in NYC for good reason. Off the intersection of Washington Street and Water Street is a perfect view of the Manhattan Bridge sandwiched between two buildings. If you want to take it one step further you are able to get a closer view of the bridge at Main Street Park (Found at the end of Washington Street). Parking here is di...

Brooklyn Bridge Park Piers

Starting at the Brooklyn Main Street Park, you are on the right side of the Manhattan Bridge. Here you can check out the new outdoor climbing gym. Keep walking along the water and you'll soon come upon Pebble Beach. Now this beach is not exactly a "let's bring our beach chairs and spend the day here" beach; it's more of a "woah! there's a beach here?" beach. But do whatever makes you happy....

Climb Outdoors at DUMBO Boulders

Enter at the corner of Adams St. and John St. and see the Manhattan Bridge above you. To your left is the new DUMBO Boulders, the largest outdoor rock gym in North America: at least for now.At only $9 for a day pass, includes the price of rental shoes, it's a steal compared to any gym in the city. To make things go faster, you can do an online waiver here. They have Ipads that make signing i...
