Field Trip: Bike into Fire Island
It's a bit of a production requiring cars and bikes, but cycling onto Fire Island is a real adventure that lets you explore the beach towns. You can also train, ferry and walk the same route. / 16 comments
Field Trip: Beacon, NY
You can see and do a lot in Beacon in one day, even without wheels: kayak, hike, beach it, see some art and eat pretty well. / 3 comments
Field Trip: Riverside Park South
Bike or walk up to Riverside Park South for some sunny open lawn space or shade under a willow tree.
Field Trip: Domino Park
The new five-acre park in Williamsburg has an elevated walkway, a fog installation, a cool playground, and a Danny Meyer taqueria. / 3 comments
Field Trip: Long Island City
'Tis the season for a boat ride up the East River, to a part of town that appears to be changing right before your eyes. / 2 comments
Field Trip: Two Bridges
The charm of Two Bridges goes beyond the many wonderful old buildings: The neighborhood feels like a mix of the old Lower East Side, the new Lower East Side, and Chinatown. Depending on the block, the atmosphere changes. / 7 comments
Field Trip: Governors Island (Reprise)
The island is only open through the end of the month, but the great thing about going now—especially on a weekday, if you can swing it—is that nobody is there. My ferry had maybe 100 passengers on it, but once we disembarked, they must have turned invisible. / 1 comment
Field Trip: Storm King Art Center
The sculpture park about 90 minutes from Tribeca has an extraordinary art collection, but the joy also comes from being outside in a beautiful place. / 2 comments
Field Trip: Red Hook
The Brooklyn neighborhood of Red Hook is what I like most in a destination: It's somewhere that makes the act of looking worthwhile. / 2 comments
Field Trip: Sunset Park
Having already explored Bay Ridge, at the end of NYC Ferry's South Brooklyn route, I set off for the second-to-last stop—Sunset Park, another neighborhood I knew zip about. / 6 comments
Field Trip: Bay Ridge
A new ferry route runs between Wall Street and the Brooklyn neighborhood of Bay Ridge, a charming area that feels like New York City of yore. / 18 comments
Field Trip: The Met Breuer
Who says you don't get a second chance to make a first impression? Plus: the Second Avenue Subway. / 2 comments
