OTHER THINGS TO DO
Smorgasburg - An outdoor food market with dozens of vendors (starts at 11am and goes all day). It’s in Marsha P. Johnson Park by the water, super close to the Hoxton and close to the Penny, too.
McCarren Park - the biggest park in the neighborhood. Hangout and people watch. Would recommend Five Leaves for breakfast or lunch, Greenpoint Fish & Lobster for lunch, or Peter Pan for donuts.
Domino Park - a new waterfront park with amazing views and a great boardwalk. Plenty of food options.
Transmitter Park - a small but beautiful park right on the water. Grab tacos at Taqueria Ramirez before or after - one of the best spots in the city. Grab a park-beer at Brouwerij Lane!
