Beautiful City View
Why locals love it
Roosevelt Island is a getaway from the city within the city's view. It is accessible by both the F subway train and the Roosevelt Island Tramway (on 60th street and 2nd avenue in Manhattan), which gives a view of Manhattan from above the East River. The walk along the river on Roosevelt Island overlooks the Manhattan skyline.
Why you should visit it
Visitors will love the beautiful city skyline across the gleaming East River. The tramway to access the island and Manhattan is a sight above the city's tall skyscrapers and luxury apartments. This experience will give travellers the ultimate view of the city they are visiting without an observation deck.
Special tip
The river promenade and welcoming parks on each end of the island provide for an inclusive and beautiful experience.
