Jazz bands/players in every nook of this park. Find the man playing classical music on his Steinway. He is insanely good, plays most days, and listening to Mozart in Washington Square Park under the Arch is one of the most New York moments you'll have. He also offers curious souls to lay UNDER his piano to hear the music from a new perspective.

See the skyline from Brooklyn, grab a slice at Grimaldi's or a drink at the One Hotel. My Favorite vintage store is also in Dumbo- Front Street General. In the summer they play movies outside on the lawn of the the Brooklyn Bridge Park- picture a movie play and Manhattan is the backdrop.
