One of the best things to do in the summer in New York is kicking back at waterfront bar with the sun beating down and a gorgeous view of the water. Unfortunately, with those killer views often come killer prices. Take advantage of these post-work happy hours at some of the best waterfront bars in the city to start your summer nights off right without breaking the bank.
