Suggestions for river-side near New York

Taiowa W. • December 16, 2016Good spot for running. There are water fountains that are available during the warm weather and are usually off during the winter. A great place to watch the sunrise.

John L. • May 9, 2016Best outdoor space around the west village. Beautifully maintained

Peter W. • September 2, 2013A beautiful, somewhat secluded granite park and monument. Fantastic river views and a unique look at the east side.

Frau Coco L. • August 6, 2015You have to walk that bridge! Otherwise you haven't been in New York. Perfect view to both sides. Manhattan and Brooklyn across the Hudson River.

The Corcoran Group • October 11, 2013Some of the best views of the Hudson River from this park, and not as crowded as other parks along the West Side highway. Great place to catch a summer concert.

Diego R. • March 31, 2011If you’re walking around TriBeCa or nearby neighbourhoods, stop by this park. It’s a nice place to enjoy the Hudson River breeze and take a look at New Jersey on the other side of the river.

DoubleDeuce • July 21, 2013During the warmer months, catch the breeze up from the river on the stairs in the middle on the fields on the North side to cool down.

Andrew F. • October 12, 2015This park is a triangle because two of the sides (Gansovort St and Greenwich Ave) were formerly Native American footpaths used to get to a trading post on the Hudson River.

Compass • July 24, 2013Enjoy tennis courts, rowing, boating docks, and playgrounds along the West Side Highway. A peaceful running path is perfect for early morning joggers and bikers.

Brian H. • April 8, 2012Wide lawns and trees dotting the periphery, sitting on a corner of land with the river on two sides, make this park a special place. The community gardens in the northeast corner are very nice too.

DoubleDeuce • March 22, 2018Another great NYC Park running up the west side along the Hudson river.

NYC Parks • November 13, 2013Places to Run: Take a 12-mile run along some or all of Manhattan’s west side using the Hudson River Greenway, from Fort Tryon Park near Dyckman Street to Battery Park City. Best at sunset.

Jacky L. • October 15, 2010Quiet Park with an excelente vier. On one side the river And on the other one

Courtney C. • May 4, 2013If you're taking the Metro-North Hudson line, sit on the left side of the train out of GCT for the best views of the Hudson River

AFAR Media • August 12, 2014If you come during peak hours and days, be prepared to wait, but there are plenty of places nearby to grab a drink, as well as the West Side Highway and Hudson River only one short block west.

Garry G. • August 28, 2010Setting seemed better than food... but worth it! Check out note on front side of building showing shore of Hudson River 1770s...then look at where landfill has shifted boundary?! Historic cool spot...

Zeba S. • May 18, 2017Favorite summer place by the hudson river! Their sangrias are good with a side of chips or their burger!

Michelle H. • January 23, 2012If you're staying at a hotel on the other side of the river, take the train across and then get a taxi. Do the same on the way back. Taxi drivers don't like having to go over the river.

Nancy L. • October 21, 2012Been there after riding bike's with husband and children. park, stop, munch and continue on the river side lanes. family friendly love the food and drinks.

Kristin M. • April 22, 2010Amtrak to Albany or other upstate destinations? Get in line at track 5. You'll be right & might get to board before it's posted. Sit on left side (facing front) for Hudson River views on your trip.

Compass • April 21, 2014If it’s summer on the Upper West Side, you should be at this bar on 79th St. Barbecue and beer combine to make a Hudson River sunset even more beautiful.
