Parks & Nature

With a stunning view of Manhattan and Queens, this impeccably landscaped park and monument to FDR has been used as the backdrop for Kanye West's fashion shows and Hillary Clinton's campaign kick-off. It is normally very quiet and peaceful and is open to the public - check their website for the hours, which are seasonal.
