Union Square Park

A verrrrryyyy happening place. Found a random rap circle where anyone can freestyle one after another non stop. It takes place every friday night till october 2016.

Man, look at all those P Stops. Great place to sit, relax, and enjoy your people watching. Check out the market when you get a chance.

Great public park, easily accessible by a bevy of subway lines, proximity to shopping and dining, and a wonderful farmers market (seasonal/weather permitting). There are normally panhandlers (of all sorts - ranging from chess, to art, to performance, to protest, to religious in nature) towards the southern boundary, and Union Square has always been popular for political protest (generally liberal and/or radical). There are extensive seating and lounge areas, as well as smaller enclosed spaces, and a restaurant towards the northern boundary. Captures the young, quasi-rebellious attitude of the neighborhood.
