Snabba fakta: This neighborhood features one of the earliest collections of brownstone houses in America, with tree-lined streets that charm in all seasons. A famous promenade offers sweeping views of Manhattan's skyline and the Statue of Liberty beyond.
Höjdpunkter: Along the promenade, an old water tower stands 143 feet tall, a landmark from the 19th century repurposed as a community garden hub. Early evenings reveal local artists setting up easels, capturing the skyline’s glow reflected in the East River.
