Take in the sights of New York City on a harbor cruise with the Classic Harbor Line, where you can choose from cruising on a classic Schooner or the more elegant Luxury Yacht. The company offers a variety of tours that will showcase views of the Lower Manhattan Skyline, Ellis Island, Governor's Island, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, and much more.
Take a look into the city's past at the Mount Vernon Hotel Museum & Garden, a facility that presents the history of the Mount Vernon Hotel. The hotel operated from 1826 until 1833; in its heyday, the hotel was a fashionable country resort that was popular among New Yorkers who wanted to take a break from city life. After restorations, the site was opened to the public in 1939 and serves as a reminder of a significant era in New York City history.
The High Line is a park on the lower west side of Manhattan. The park is built on a section of the freight railroad that runs 1.45 miles from the Meat Packing District up to 20th Street. After further development, the park will stretch through the neighborhood of Chelsea to the West Side Yard. The park offers attractions and design, garden, family, art and history programs.
