It's a park, sort of. it's a narrow walkway that used to be rail tracks. Pretty innovative and hugely popular. Avoid weekends if you can, as it gets crowded, and benches are few and far between.

Food Scene

New Yorkers and tourists alike line up like crazy for fresh burgers and "concretes" (thick custard shakes in ever-changing flavors.) You have to see it (and taste it!) for yourself while you're here.

There's always something weird going on on Governor's Island. Only open in the summer, you'll encounter strange art, a couple shops, and a historic old fort. Don't let the cannons surprise you.

Entertainment & Activities

Got kids? This place is perfect. Free on ...I think it's Friday afternoons (of course, that's when it gets packed.) Good for all ages. Just don't forget the hand wipes.

Shopping

Classic New York! Nothing fancy but excellent bagels, a true neighborhood favorite. Good luck getting a seat. Take your bagel out to one of those benches in the middle of Broadway and people-watch.
