citylikeyou — New York Ferries — New York by Sean McClintock

New York / Attraction

You can’t say you’ve seen NYC until you’ve seen it from a boat. Hop on the ferry from anywhere to anywhere and you’ll see what I mean. Not only will you see excellent old buildings and factories–the inner workings of the old industrial city–but you’ll head out under working bridges and see the skyscrapers in all their towering glory. And once you’ve done it, do it again, at night.

Brooklyn tattoo shop specializing in American traditional style work. Everyone is super nice and cool.

New York / Bar

Make sure you know the size of your party when you arrive, or the formidable looking bouncer may give you a hard time at the door (they prefer no standing inside, all parties must be seated), but once you’re in, the drinks are fantastic and the staff is friendly and accommodating. In addition to cocktails, Pouring Ribbons features an impressive selection of Chartreuse.

New York / Museum

When I first visited NY in 2010 the New Museum left a permanent impression. I love the architecture and the concept of the piled-white-shoe-box look-a-like building at the edge of the Lower East Side neighborhood. The exhibition program is appealingly different, and the bookstore in the foyer is not to be missed!

New York / Place

I took this image looking straight up at the barrel-vaulted ceiling which is decorated with constellations. The more prominent stars are lit up by LEDs. This space is one of the most magical in the city. According to legend, the sky was intentionally inverted to show how it would appear from God’s point of view from beyond the celestial sphere.
