Madison Square Park

Nature, Parks, & Gardens • New York City, New York United States

A nearly 7-acre park full of greenery where you can rest after (or during) a long day of sightseeing. The park was named after the fourth president of the United States, James Madison, and it was opened in 1847.

The park is not just a park though. It is also a place where many public events are organised (including Parktoberfest), pieces of art are displayed and parties are held. Before you visit the park, you might want to check the official website to see which events not to miss.

There is also a free Wi-Fi connection so you can stay online even here. On weekends, the place tends to get crowded (especially when the weather is nice).

Explore the Ruins of a Forgotten City in the Middle of Manhattan

New York City, New York United States

This 2-3 hour guided walking tour around Madison Square Park seeks out what's left to be found of the Gilded Age city. On this tour we read the architecture and decode the street walls in a neighborhood that was once the New York's city center at the height of the Gilded Age.  Where the city came from (Soho), and where it moved to (Times Square, Museum Mile, and the shops of Fifth Avenue) is integral to understanding how New York, and Madison Square, developed. You’ll learn answers to questions you didn’t know you had about New York City, and leave with the deeply satisfying sense of understanding a city that author James Baldwin called 'spitefully incoherent'.
