Manhattan Highlights
Sightseeing
These aren't your typical tourist traps but they make as much or more of an impression and experience in my opinion.
Interactive sculpture stories tall where one can take in views of the city, Hudson river and the new Hudson Yards development. A great starting point for a walk down the Highline.

An abandoned elevated railway revamped into one of NYC's most beloved park experiences. This dilapidated structure stretches from the new Hudson Yards neighborhood (34th St) to the Whitney Museum in the the Meat Packing district (~14th St). Wonderfully landscaped and designed the walk offers views and a different perspective of NYC. Food vendors along the way bring refreshment to the stroll.

A move from uptown to their new $600 million dollar showpiece building has drawn crowds to the museum like never before. Multiple terraces with incredible views and awe inspiring architecture almost makes the art inside irrelevant.
