Best contemporary art museum in NY, have to take a train that goes along the Hudson river (best views during fall season!) / rent a car. This museum only uses natural light, and has pieces from Richard Serra, Judd, Sol Lewitt, Walter de Maria, Robert Smithson, Flavin, all best of the best!

Stupendous views of Manhattan and what feels like all of Brooklyn from the only tall-ish building around. And very good beer.

Best restaurant in the world.

Try it out rooftop-cycling and find magical cactuses on the road!

For Adults and Kids a good reason to get the "out of the city feeling" although you are still in the middle of it! Free entrance with NYC ID!
