    The New York Harbor is very pretty, and offers wonderful views of the New York City skyline from it.

    As you look at the backdrop it feels familiar because of so many movies that use this spot. Cold and crisp but well worth braving the temperature

    Beautiful view of New York Skyline

    What a wonderful trip to New York
  • By Igor Ostrovsky
    The best part of my work commute - cross it twice a day for the last 20+ years and never get tired of it. Lots of sights: Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Verrazzano Bridge, Governors Island, great views of Manhattan Downtown and bridges, Brooklyn Downtown. Not surprisingly most New York guidebooks list it as one of the top attractions in New York City.

    I was visiting New York on July 1992. The weather was not very fine. I made a boat tour around Manhattan. In the photos, the Twin Tours may be seen. I remember that I went there and decided not to visit. In those time I was a frequent traveler to the USA. Visited on July 1992.
  • By Victor Olaore Omoshehin
    It's a beautiful place to be. You will enjoy the views and get the peaceful healing of heart from the sea view. I will recommend visiting this site for personal reflection and meditation. It's cool to come alone with your burden and offload them at the harbor.
