IN THE
NEIGHBOURHOOD
It may be one of the world’s bestloved
cities in itself, but New York is
home to an archipelago of boroughs
and neighbourhoods – each
with their own unique spirit. With
everything from cultural hotspots to
the bright lights of Broadway and
a melting pot of incredible eateries
to keep you full from morning until
night, there’s a reason we call it
the city that never sleeps. There’s
plenty of opportunity to take in that
incredible skyline, too
HUDSON YARDS
This is the new New York. You can’t miss
the modern mirrored skyscrapers to the
West Side of Manhattan, officially
launched as recently as 2019. Take in
the truly unique architecture, watch live
music at new arts centre The Shed or
sip a cocktail in one of the ultra-cool bars
- from March 2020, you’ll be able to take
in the incredible views from The Edge,
the city’s tallest observation deck.
Hudson Yards is easily accessible
from the High Line, New York’s popular
elevated walkway park - why not make
a day of it?
GREENWICH VILLAGE
The relaxed Greenwich Village is a
haven for free spirits, with independent
art galleries, comedy clubs, shops and
cafes aplenty. It’s a neighbourhood that’s
rich with creative history - the likes of
Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan began their
careers on these streets - and is also the
home of New York’s oldest running
off-Broadway theatre, Cherry Lane.

BROOKLYN
Having undergone something of a revival
in recent years, Brooklyn is a must-visit
during any trip to NYC. Try the worldfamous
pizza pies, mooch around the
quirky shops and look out to incredible
views across the water towards
Manhattan – we recommend saving your
walk across Brooklyn Bridge until sunset,
for a truly spectacular vista across
the water. The charming Coney Island
with its classic fairground rides and
picturesque beach is a must for families
(or kids at heart).
MIDTOWN
As New York’s beating heart, here you
will find all of the sights and attractions
that make this city so famous. Live your
movie moment in the unforgettable
chaos of Times Square before heading
to a show on Broadway, and visit the Top
of the Rock for the best views of the the
skyline, including the Empire State
Building. Shopaholics will love the iconic
Fifth Avenue, bordering Central Park and
offering labels galore.
CENTRAL PARK
Those wanting to explore New York on
foot will love this vast leafy space in the
centre of Manhattan, offering a beautiful
outlook no matter the time of year.
Surrounded by the city’s towering
skyscrapers, it’s a mammoth 3.4 square
kilometres in size - offering endless
spots to sit and while away the
afternoon. You can even dine inside the
park at the Loeb Boathouse, a lakeside
restaurant dating back to 1854.
