October 2016

October is such an exciting time in New York City. Although there are so many awesome autumn events, for many of us New Yorkers there’s nothing better than getting above it all and seeing the gorgeous fall foliage. Check out these top spots in New York City to get your leaf peeping on.

Top of the Rock: Take in the most breathtaking views of New York City with 360-degree decks. The Top of the Rock Observation Deck has what many consider the finest panoramic vistas in all of New York City. 30 Rockefeller Plaza, get tickets!

Manhattan by Sail: It’s easy to forget Manhattan is an island. Check out Manhattan by Sail for a breezy cruise. Board the historic 820foot Shearwater schooner and float around Manhattan’s harbor taking in views of the buildings and, of course, the foliage. North Cove Marina, near Battery Park City, Hudson River.

Governors Island: I can’t say enough times how amazing Governors Island is. With a long promenade to take an afternoon stroll amongst the leaves and it being so close to Manhattan it really is a great get-away to frolic and see some foliage.

Fort Tyron Park: This gorgeous park overlooks the Hudson River and is one of the highest natural points in Manhattan. Check out beautiful views of the Hudson, The George Washington Bridge and New Jersey Palisades. Also you can go check out the Cloisters Museum and Gardens, which will transport you to another time.

Alley Pond Park: Check out the Tulip Tree Trail for a great place to see some great leaves. It’s in Queens and it’s great. Pack a picnic and grab a bestie. This is a perfect afternoon get-a-way to enjoy the fall foliage.

Okay, so we all know that there has been the cronut, the rainbow bagel, and the insane milkshakes taking over our Instagram feeds. But where can you get these insta-sensational food items?! Here are some of the hottest dishes and where to find them. If you go, take pictures and thank me later.

Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer Milkshakes

Are these shakes for real?! While I definitely would need a friend (or two) to finish one of these puppies off, they’ll definitely get you a LOT of likes on Instagram. Plus, look at them. They’re amazing! Get them here: 529 Broome St

Pork Buns at Momofuku Check these off your food-bucket list, the famed pork bun is the most item across the Momofuku empire. #YUM Get them here: 207 Second Avenue at 13th street

Pastrami Sandwich on Rye at Katz’s Delicatessen This may seem like a no-brainer since Katz’s is one of NYC’s classic go-to restaurants but these sandwiches NEVER get old! Get them here: 205 East Houston Street (corner of Ludlow St)

Sharing Fondue for 2 at Max Brenner Melted chocolate, fresh fruit, delish waffles, does it get much better?! Grab your BFF and check this out. Plus, you can tag each other in your ‘grams. Get it here: 841 Broadway

Spicy Ramen at Totto Ramen They didn’t include the fish cake emoji for nothing! Besides being one of the best ramen joints in the city, Totto Ramen is ALSO very instagrammable *and delicious* Get it here: 248 E52nd Street

The Rainbow Bagel at The Bagel Store Well worth the trip into Brooklyn, this food item has taken the digital world by storm. People are even doing spinoffs like rainbow grilled cheese, and rainbow mac and cheese, but the original is, and will forever be here: 754 Metropolitan Ave

The Ramen Burger at Smorgasburg This little puppy has been invading my Instagram feed for months. And I tried it. Good news, IT’S AWESOME. Get it here: 90 Kent Ave

These are just some of the most instagrammable foods. For more even more, click here. If you’re looking to move to this food-haven of a city, contact No Fee Rentals!
