Suggestions for Plaza near New York

Brandon M. • March 14, 2011Bill's Bar and Burger on 51st is worth going to RC for as well as Top of the Rock's stellar view of Manhattan and surrounding boroughs. Don't miss Nintendo World on 48th and the Plaza!

ℳ𝒶𝓎♍ • November 16, 2020My favorite part of Central Park, with the arabesque design of the walls and staircase. It's magnificent. The open area at the bottom of the stairs is where performers/bubble blowers park themselves

Alan C. • November 13, 2011Watch the vendors square off for real estate in the plaza below.

Kaye S. • September 25, 2013Must see for anyone visiting NYC. I go every time I'm here and it's always new, fresh and exciting!

Clara L. • October 22, 2014Come in the afternoon and spend some time under the trees at a table, inside the music and performing arts library, or check out the lovely grass section right across from Julliard.

Rafi S. • September 26, 2012This is the best entrance and exit to the Big Loop in Central Park if you're coming from downtown via bike. Watch out for cabs coming in if you exit after 7:30am.

James J. • September 4, 2014Go for the grassy area rather than the southern plaza with the students and performers.

ℳ𝒶𝓎♍ • February 26, 2020Times Square has a lot going on under the bright lights and the Red Stairs are a constant draw. The bleachers-like steps are a perfect viewpoint for the twinkling billboards and a prime selfie spot
