Prospect Park is a great place to have a water balloon fight, a picnic, a jog, and play with other people's dogs.

where I walk with my dog near my apartment, is also the remains of what was Fort Putnam in the late 1700’s and later Fort Washington near the Navy Yard. Not the largest park but a regular part of my routine and big enough to feel like you’re still out of the city when you’re in the middle of it.

It’s a great bookstore with an interesting yet relatable selection of art books 

My first job in the city. The family and friends and raised New York Megan. Also very good coffee. And lovely neighbors.

The Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms Park is a four-acre memorial to Franklin D. Roosevelt designed by Louis Kahn that celebrates the Four Freedoms Roosevelt articulated in his 1941 State of the Union address.
