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

This is where I bought Dax Snow's I love You Stupid and Richard Prince's John Duke Book both inspired me a lot.

I've seen so many great classic movies on film here. Being able to have that experience is one of the things that I feel lucky living in this city.

When I moved to NYC in the summer of 2009, my wife Hannah and I went straight to Central Park and the Belvedere Castle. It was the first time I fully grasped that I lived in New York and it felt euphoric standing on that hill. For me this place is still a romantic symbol and reminder of the spirit and essence of the city and the reasons I live here.
