I’m there rn and its beautiful… in many ways, park slope is to Brooklyn girls who grew up outside of it, what Manhattan is to girls who grew up in Jersey
The views off the west coast of the peninsula are beautiful. A good sunset from there is breathtaking. Pier 57 is a pretty good food court type thing with public bathrooms. The docks south of the World Trade Center are usually pretty chill and scenic too. I haven’t spent as much time on the eastern side but I’m pretty sure there’s a park on the edge of east village that may or may not be nice
I studied for (and recieved) the NYC food handlers license last summer and I have lived in constant fear of botulism since. Yesterday my friend said he ate mac and cheese that had been sitting out for 2 days after “reheating” it in the sun. I’m jealous of his blissful ignorance.
