Summer in NYC
There's nothing quite like summer in New York City! New York and its five boroughs offer experiences unlike any other city in the world: from Carnegie Hall to Yankee Stadium; from the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Empire State Building; from the Lower East Side to the Upper West Side; from Harlem to Wall Street. New York has been called a laboratory of humanity. The plethora of kosher restaurants, synagogues and Jewish culture also make New York City an ideal setting for the country's premier Jewish university.
Here are just a few (free!) things to do in NYC this summer:
- Explore The Highline
- Spend a day in Central Park, Fort Tryon Park, Prospect Park, Riverside Park, or Brooklyn Bridge Park
- See a free outdoor concert at Central Park Summer Stage or the Celebrate Brooklyn Festival in Prospect Park
- Catch a free outdoor movie (just make sure to get there early to hold a spot!)
