From the New York World / Itineraries

More New York Landmarks

A flexible selection of Manhattan avenues, parks and landmarks for building short, area-based combinations beyond a single fixed neighborhood route.

More New York Landmarks

Why go

Use this collection to build small combinations rather than a fixed itinerary: Park Avenue works with Grand Central, Madison Avenue with Madison Square, and Broadway with Times Square or Columbus Circle. The entries span different parts of Manhattan, so geographic grouping matters more than list order. Treat them as prompts for an architecture, transport or streetscape walk, selecting a single district and allowing nearby landmarks to set the pace rather than trying to connect distant avenues in one outing.

Useful to know

  • Select by area and interest, then group nearby stops instead of trying to cover the collection in sequence.
  • Park Avenue, Madison Avenue and Broadway are most rewarding when paired with a specific landmark or neighborhood along them.

    Greenwich Village

    Greenwich Village rewards walking from Washington Square into smaller, irregular streets. Its historic cultural identity remains useful context, but the strongest immediate experience is the contrast with Manhattan’s regular grid.
