Staten Island.

I had to go to Staten Island to go view some apartments. The ferry is really easy to get to with three subway stations all stopping either right on top or basically right on top of the terminal. If you doing the tourist thing then this is a great idea for a Sunday morning. Battery Park is located right next door and is currently being used as an urban farm. There was also some kind of market going on. The park is also where you can catch a ferry to Ellis Island or the Statue of Liberty.

Tourist Tip: For the best view of Manhattan let everybody get on the ferry before you, the ferry heads straight out of the terminal and doesn't change direction. Simply step onto the loading ramp and turn around, you'll get an awesome view without frantically fighting for a seat on the upper decks.

It is so strange that so much happens on such a small piece of land. The new World Trade Centre buildings are the buildings with the cranes on top of them. Another place I would like to go see.
