    There are so many places in the city that I love, that it's too difficult to
    name. here's my top five:

    1. South Street Seaport at sunset, with a gorgeous view of all three
    bridges.
    2. Washington Square Park on Friday in the evening. The musicians come out
    of the woodwork.
    3. St. Marks on a weekend. Perfect for people-watching. Get a front porch
    seat at Yaffa Cafe.
    4. Battery Park Rose Gardens. Tranquil and perfect for inspiration in prose.
    5. The bench in the middle of the Brooklyn Bridge pedestrian walk. Bring a
    jacket and some hot cocoa.

    Shakespeare Gardens is definitely a sweetspot on the island. My buddy got
    married there this July. Some nice pictures: http://www.jeffandmary.org/
    You'd hardly believe it was in Manhattan, save for the ominous shadows in
    the horizon.
