Sightseeing

These are places in NYC that tourists like to see, at least once.
It’s an iconic location. You can get to it by taking a bus from Fort Lee and then the train to midtown from Washington Heights. In fact, taking the bus from Fort Lee to Washington Heights will connect you with all of the trains throughout the entire city. It’s much cheaper than Uber or a taxi, however, they only run for as long as the 181st street bus terminal is open (I believe until 2am). They run every 15 - 30 minutes, non-stop, almost all day and night. Just get a ticket from the kiosk and hop aboard. After 2am or so, however, an Uber or taxi is the only way back to Fort Lee from the city.

This is the ferry you take if you want the closest views of the Statue of Liberty. It can be cold, but it’s worth it!
