Paley Park

Description

This tiny park, situated in the middle of high-rise office buildings, is a nice retreat for locals and tourists who need a quick break from the buzz of Midtown East. The honey locust trees and 20-foot waterfall create the perfect backdrop for a relaxing lunch hour or an out-of-office meeting.
