Great Things
Food scene
One of the top-rated Kosher restaurants in the city. Upscale, amazing aesthetics, and even better staff. Further, I've had some of my favorite sushi dishes, here. Try the Volcano Roll! When their outdoor space is open, it offers incredible views of the city.
Great for dates, families, anyone. Hard to count how many engagement proposals I've seen happen here.

Parks
This park is one of my absolute favorites across all of NY. It wraps around the waterfront and offers views of Jersey City and the Statue of Liberty. Lots of trees, fresh air, and bike paths abound. It's pet-friendly, and near some of the best restaurants in the Financial District/Seaport area.
