Ground Zero Memorial Pools




Woolworth Building

*The Woolworth Building transformed New York City’s skyline and remains one of the most famous skyscrapers in the country. It is a Gothic marvel designed by architect Cass Gilbert for millionaire five-and-dime storeowner Frank W. Woolworth. Completed in 1913, the elegant structure was hailed as “the cathedral of commerce” and was the tallest building in the world until 1930.* - https://nylandmarks.org/explore-ny/the-woolworth-building/

Ghost Busters House
Firehouse, Hook & Ladder Company 8

Requires no introduction. Only its facade was used for the filming whilst the rest of the interior remains an active, fully operational Fire Station. During winter, they kept the doors closed due to the cold. Give a knock, you never know who's gonna answer the call.
They have their own merchandise for sale on the inside, and have on display patches from various fan groups around the country.

P.S
The company was among the first responders to the September 11 attacks, where they lost Lieutenant Vincent Halloran in the North Tower collapse.They renamed the street in honor of him.

Friends Apartment
 
Little Island
Experience nature in a unique Urban Oasis along the made famous Hudson River by Capt Sully and Hudson River water landing after dual engine failure shortly after takeoff.
A really nice space with interactive musical pieces. An oasis of peace and relaxation.
Chelsea Market
Place for artisanal foods, eats and purchases. Similar to many known markets found in London like Borough Markets.

The High Line
(About a 1.5level above ground park)
Views points from along the route

There are multiple entry and exit points along this stretch of elevated walkway/park. Marvel at the various forms of architecture that makes up the uniqueness of New York City.
Vessel
The extraordinary centerpiece of Hudson Yards is its spiral staircase, a soaring new landmark. (The attractions upper floors remain closed due to suicides in fairly short span of time.)

 Staten Island Ferry

Click here for Staten Island Ferry
Extremely easy and straight forward. The ferry service runs at regular intervals and extra services during the rush hours 24hours a day. Service is free, and picking a good weather day offers fantastic views.

Journey is 8.36km long for 25mins each way. You must get off and get on to board the return journey. There's an outlet store at St George Ferry Terminal on the other side. With the regular ferry service, just hop over at your own time.
ABBATIP:
Try to target the bigger ships as seen in Spider-man Home Coming and outdoor viewing areas. The smaller ship only have outdoor, unblocked views at the back of the boat.
