This is a good way to take beautiful pictures of the skyline of Manhattan while learning full of fun details about New York's history. You will also have a breathtaking view of the Brooklyn Bridge and Wall Street. And it's also an opportunity to see New Jersey a little more if you don't plan to go there. There are two piers, one at Pier 83 of West 42 nd Street (for most towers) and one at Pier 16 of South Street Seaport (for towers to the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and Beast). Each cruise is commented by competent guides, but who have not forgotten to be entertainers! To appreciate Manhattan, there are several circuits: one that allows you to enjoy Midtown and south Manhattan in 1 hour 30, one that makes a complete tour of Manhattan Island in 2 hours 30, another, in a much faster boat, that makes a 1 hour return between Midtown West and the Statue of Liberty, and two other circuits that offer night cruises.

A magnificent example of a Gothic Revival style Art-Deco skyscraper, the building (one of the first in New York City to be classified as a historic monument) erected in 1924 stands its 103 m of black brick crowned with gold above Bryant Park. Renamed the American Standard Building, since 2001 it has housed the Bryant Park Hotel, whose rooms are far from the splendour of the façade. He inspired the painter Georgia O'Keeffe to paint her famous Radiator Building, Night New York (1927).

Rose bushes on the East River.

A small park, dating back to 1831, that benefits a very well-preserved neighbourhood where Manhattan's gratin lives. Closed to visitors, the Gramercy is the only private park in New York; you need a key to access it. And to have this key, you must be the owner or tenant of one of the beautiful private houses that surround it. You will also have this privilege if you stay at the Gramercy Park Hotel... And don't try to get over the fences, the few New Yorkers or tourists who have already tried it have usually spent the night at the station.

At the foot of the High Line, this beautiful gallery exhibits pop art and contemporary works by well-known artists (Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Banksy...), unknown artists and young talents from all over the world. Immense love for the works of Mr. Brainwash, French painter and Banksy's protégé, who juxtaposes graffiti on historical photos or icons. If you have the means, you can treat yourself to one of his paintings... Works of a rare quality for a gallery whose access is entirely free!

A site in English that indicates everything that needs to be done, to see, where to eat, where to spend the evening. There is everything on everything. A sort of calendar allows you to know what happens at a specific date. A very high-performance directory service will allow you to find the coordinates and locate any institution that interests you.

Everything is indicated, cultural or sporting events, evenings in bars and boxes, concerts, cinema, etc. This is the best general guide for someone who comes from a holiday in New York.

It is the seat of the Holy Trinity Choir and the Bach Orchestra, and the only American church where Bach cantatas are interpreted according to the liturgical calendar.
