5 Monuments & Statues in Civic Center That You Shouldn't Miss

May 28, 2021 Claudia Navarrete

Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

The Oculus

Reviewed By bklynbubba

Big and beautiful. It was about time New York got something by Santiago Calatrava. The Oculus is very well designed and integrated into the area, connecting with both transportation venues (the PATH station and the Fulton Center) and while there are the usual standard high end shops for visitors who cannot live without one of them in every city they visit, the structure itself is worth it.
