Hi Deborah,
Thank you for a great stay. Neighborhood is a big part of getting immersed into the local atmosphere. We walked from the apartment over Brooklyn Bridge, Battery park, the High-line and to Central Park, and back. No need for trains and busses, if you bring your walking shoes. We walked 10-14 miles per day without seeing the same place twice. Take a LYFT if you're tired, it works like a charm when don't want to walk anymore.
We'll come back...
