The sculpture is a 30 foot tall swimming pool, taken out of its normal context and displayed in its side with a diving board built in at the top. One of my favorite elements are the working lights on the inside left and right of the pool sculpture. Being that it's out of context - a recreational object in the middle of a commercial center - it creates a sense of longing and desire for recreation over industry and gives you an off-kilter feeling (why am I going to work when I could be swimming!). Overall a great piece of colorful public art at placed I a great spot for the perfect season. The piece is on display from April 13th though June 3rd, 2016. Catch it while you can!

I also saw Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile at Loew's back in November. I recommend checking it out for the programming, but also to see some beautiful architecture inside.

For some reason I don't know why the women's bathroom has 1 urinal, which is supposed to be in the men's bathroom. So I found that weird.

Connecting Lower Manhattan with Brooklyn Heights, this iconic bridge is an architectural marvel…read moreknown the world over. Completed in 1883, this suspension bridge with its visually familiar stone arches has been featured in many Hollywood blockbusters including: Spider-Man, The French Connection, Enchanted, Sex and the City, I Am Legend, Cloverfield, Godzilla, Deep Impact, Moonstruck, and Sophie's Choice. Fun fact: in order to prove its safety, P.T. Barnum once crossed the bridge with 21 elephants. Today, this bridge averages nearly 29K pedestrians and over 103K vehicles PER DAY. Although I've been in NYC a handful of times, I've only ever walked across this bridge once in my life. Started on the Manhattan side and made my way over to Brooklyn, before walking it back over to Manhattan. All in, took me about 20mins with multiple stops for photos. On both ends of the bridge, you'll find a variety of merchants hawking their goods. Although there is substantially more on the Manhattan side than Brooklyn. A lot of the vendors will carry the same goods, but the prices are not all made equal. I recommend walking a bit deeper in if you spot something you like to see if you can find it cheaper. You can always double back if you cannot find it again. The pedestrian promenade is pretty wide and accommodates a pretty heavy flow of foot traffic, with plenty of room to stop to take pictures. And speaking of pictures, you'll definitely be treated to gorgeous, unobstructed views of the Lower Manhattan skyline and the East River walking in either direction. There is also separate protected bicycle path which is great in preventing collisions between pedestrians and cyclists. Come here on a beautiful day like I did and enjoy the extra cardio while soaking up the view. It's definitely worth it and something you should do at least once when visiting NYC.

It's one of the most iconic structures in the world. The architecture and infrastructure of this bridge are mind-blowing. Many folks use the bridge in pedestrian as well as via motor vehicles form as their daily route. The views from the bridge are just incredible. As others have mentioned, it takes a good 30 minutes to walk and it goes by quickly. Don't hesitate to do it. Walk the bridge! It's a bucketlist item for sure.
