Field Trip: The Seaport
This is not exactly a new discovery for TC readers, but if you haven't wandered over since early March, there's lots to see and a bit to do, especially while the weather's good.
Field Trip: Rockaway Beach
If you are looking to sneak in some last licks, the Rockaway peninsula beaches are accessible by car, train or NYC Ferry. BYO sand chair. / 1 comment
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
