Located at the southwestern tip of Lower Manhattan, Battery Park City is flanked by the Financial District from West Street to the east, the neighborhood is bound by the Hudson River on three sides. This is the perfect NYC neighborhood for nature-lovers who want to stay a short ride from the heart of it all while still enjoying lots of green space.
Covered with 92 acres of the most scenic spaces in all of New York, the area is home to several parks, the Hudson River Park, Battery Park Promenade, Castle Garden, and views of the Statue of Liberty.
Stores, restaurants, green space, and a short walk to the Financial Center, make Battery Park City the ideal retreat for Midtown workers. The easily accessible Battery Park City Ferry Terminal water taxis and boats, meander the waters and take people to the city and back in a flash.
Also in the neighborhood is the Stuyvesant High School, which is one of the three specialized high schools of the city, Winter Garden that plays host to the annual Tribeca Film Festival screenings, restaurants by Shake Shack fame Danny Meyer, and of course the green oasis so close to the heart of the city and yet so tranquil.
