A manufacturing stalwart-turned-emerging art enclave, Long Island City boasts everything from stunning midtown skyline views to can’t-miss dining experiences. Just a quick subway or ferry ride from Manhattan, you’re able to get away from the crowds and take in the city scenery from Gantry State Plaza. Get your art and culture fix at the Socrates Sculpture Park or MoMA PS1.
