Highline
>its like a park that was built on an abandoned train track above the ground; its currently under further construction while being opened. There are places to sit, and also to sunbathe. There's also one part that lets you wet your feet a bit. In the middle, they have food stalls to eat. Recommended to bring your own snacks along. Beware: has a lot of walking and the bathroom is usually far. SOMETHING I STILL NEED TO TRY: STARGAZING (Between West 13th and 14th streets New York, NY; FROM DUSK-9:30 N IS ON TUESDAYS)

MET Rooftop Garden Cafe & Bar
>Usually i would've put this with the restaurant side but I hang out more here to relax. This place is pretty big n its wierd cuz I had just recently heard of it lol. Many do not know of it so it wuz not crowded. It turns out there's a special way to get there: 1) take a certain elevator that leads you straight there; 2) Go on the 2nd Floor and through a certain giftshop there is a stairway that will lead you there if you go up to the 5th Floor. I'm pretty sure sure dats y not many hav heard of it; n dats pretty cool in mi opinion! It's really like a grass garden dat has little shade but a magnificent view of the city!!! What i found even cooler is dat thers a glass structured in a way dat makes it seem ppl across it are standing nxt to you but lik in a aura way. Me n mi friend wuz pretty hyped bout it. Also, it has a cafe that's mostly drinks: its from 11-15 dollars for its small selection of food; but they had drinks for under 21 too like juice n water THANK GOD. The cashier was so nice to give us extra cups with ice; looks like dat part wuz free cuz others did the same. Unfortunately, you can't bring any food or drinks to the museum cuz of door checkup so you hav to buy from the museum. CLOSES AT 4:30 PM. Good place to really chill, and relax n see a good view of the city !! On top is also a cool exhibit called the MET Cloud City.

Riverbank State Park Roller Skating
>this place is in a LARGE PARK which i didnt know exist until NOW! I've been looking for a roller skating rink for a long time and THX THE HEAVENS, I LEARNT OF ONE!!!! It costs $7.50/person (admission+rollerskate rental+ locker) What amazed me wuz that there wasn't as much people as I thought!! It's kinda indoors rink outside. So its best to take the D train heading downtown and get off at 145th St. There you will see a Checkers store and in that direction, just keep going straight!!! It seems like a long walk, but it really is not. Once you're in the park, just keep going straight and turn to the nearest redlike building when you get near the water as you keep going straight!! I was really fun even though I had a bit of difficulty since the wheels are 4 wheels instead of just a blade like iceskating. I skated for like 2 hours!
Around the 145 St D train Station and even closer to the 1 Train; Close to City College

Roosevelt Island:
> A great place for a date but not so much for hanging out with friends UNLESS YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A PICNIC: I RECOMMEND BRINGING CARD GAMES, CAMERAS, BALLS LIKE SOCCER. FURTHERMORE, I recommend taking the D train and then transfer to the F train that will directly take you to the island. I also RECOMMEND taking the tramway later at sunset: THE VIEW IS MORE BEAUTIFUL WITH THE SUNSET. Furthermore, there's an H&M store if you want to just spend some more time, and it's conveniently beside the 4 Train station. The island is right next to Manhattan and has two ways to get there: tramway (which is pretty epic) and the F Train! The island is very peaceful and has a curfew of 8:00 PM which I find REALLY EARLY I KNOW. The place has delis, stores and has a beautiful boardwalk and many luscious green meadow that are just perfect for picnics I say! There's also a kinda big lighthouse there and an art gallery place called the Octagon. There's also a bus transportation throughout the entire island but I dont know if its cheap; ppl say its cheap n practically free though. Around the place, are playgrounds that are suited for tweens and lil kids n they have ping pong tables and basketball courts to play in! I suggest this place is only ideal if you are going to live there, you are having a one-one date or the type to just have a picnic n play sports n card games. After hanging out, you can just take the tramway off the island which yes is equal to the metrocard fare and then pay again to take the train - i no how u feel im cheap too. But the tramway is worth it! The end tramway station is around clothings stores if you also wanna go window shopping!

The Cloisters
>a part of the MET Museum but it is in the upper town of the A Train. the Cloisters are in a large park near a very large river (which you see on the way) and it is an actual museum that seems to be mostly about Christianity in an Italian Renaissance looking place. There are two small gardens that are beautiful, a cafe, many galleries, a terrace with a wonderful view, and a cafe! What's even better is that the price is whatever YOU CHOOSE TO PAY LIKE A DOLLAR! Warning: it's not really that far but I would recommend wearing sneakers because it's kinda hilly. Also, there's not really places around to eat except the cafe. You cannot drink or eat in the galleries but in the cafe, you can! You can still bring your water in though, but just in a bag!!

Winter Garden Atrium (Brookfield Place)
>Beware, go down the Vesey St, AWAY FROM THE BROADWAY SIDE. It's right across the building World Trade Center Observatory (or something like that). Beware the place got something like 2 entrances. RECOMMEND to get off the last stop of E Train - WORLD TRADE CENTER. The great thing about this place is that it's a great place to relax and sit under indoor palm trees of a mall filled with expensive things lol. Outside is a beautiful pier that serves outdoor seating with a magnificent view! You can see the water, the boats, etc!! Great place to have a date btw!!

Brooklyn Bridge Park (right beside DUMBO)
> The place has a breathtaking view of the Brooklyn Bridge and has many large lawns where you can picnic! There's also a place called Jane's Carousel which anyone can ride for $1-$2! I have to say though, well when I went, it was very small. There really wasn't much to do here either. I went for the exhibit but a lot was under construction. Well, I just have to say that this place would be a good place to relax and have a picnic. also, it's great if after hanging around Brooklyn Bridge Park, you walk on the Brooklyn Bridge towards Manhattan; its a beautiful sight!
