A museum and sculpture garden in the Long Island City section of Queens, New York City, designed and created by the Japanese-American sculptor Isamu Noguchi.

An awesome, and sometimes free, ferry that links Manhattan at the Financial District to Ikea in Brooklyn via Red Hook. Very great views of the city and if you end up having to pay it's redeemable for a monetary discount towards an Ikea purchase. I think of it as a treat and an investment.

Their coffee—all brewed from carefully sourced Nicaraguan beans—is truly delicious.

What's not to like with a place that has a Sandwich named after Jonah Hill and hand-drawn signs in the window?
