Hunters Point Travel Guide

New York

“Twin Peaks” The view from Gantry Plaza State Park. Overlooks the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building. The first, built in 1931 and the other, in 1930. These two monoliths are just some of the “elder statesmen” of this historic city as it looks over its newer structures.
10% of life is what happens to you. The other 90% is how you react to it.
Favorite place in NYC
The basement of PS1 is more beautiful than any of the art.
