  • Attractions
  • Parks and gardens
  • Chelsea

Starting at Gansevoort Street and newly extended to 34th Street, this elevated walking path (converted from a freight rail line) is a lovely slice of nature in the city. And the earlier you go, the less likely you’ll be stuck in a single-file line of tourists with selfie sticks.

2am-4am—catch jazz at Nublu
  • Bars
  • Lounges
  • East Village
  • price 1 of 4

Late-night jazz is a hallmark of the New York nightlife scene, and this unmarked spot (look for the blue light and smokers outside) is the place to see it. Be prepared to pack into a tiny space, which spills out into a backyard garden on warm nights.

4am-6am—eat at classic 24-hour spot Cafeteria
  • Restaurants
  • American
  • Chelsea
  • price 1 of 4

As seen forever ago on Sex and the City, this restaurant—a sleeker take on a 24-hour diner—has still got serious street cred. From fried chicken and waffles to mac ‘n’ cheese spring rolls, you can’t go wrong.
