DUMBO

Here's what Trippy members say about DUMBO:

"Hi, Mercedes, To add on to Marlene's answer, here are a few more places to visit: 1. Top of The Rock for sweeping views (360 degrees) of the city including a view of the Empire State Building. I like visiting just before sunset to see the how the lights light up in every building throughout the city. 2. High Line Park - an elevated public park on a historic freight rail line. 3. Stroll along the artsy buildings, shops, etc. of SoHo - grab a coffee, cocktail, and have a meal in one of the restaurants. /"  See More

"HI Kyla, Congratulations! Just an idea: just 1.5 hours East of NYC is the North Fork of Long Island. There are many beautiful vineyards, B & B's, beaches, places to sail, great restaurants. September is quite crowed because of the harvest but it is a very underrated part of NY! Otherwise less crowed and still in the heart of the Metro area is Prospect Park in Brooklyn--maybe staying in Carroll Gardens or Park Slope could give you the experience of NYC without being right in the center and still close to the park. !"  See More
