Simply the best park in New York City. You cannot have a better spot than Prospect Park to enjoy the nature and do all sort of outdoors activities. Free concerts in the summer, great run and biking (if you don't have your own bike, you can get a CitiBike at the south-west park entrance, 2 blocks from our place)
