Sadly, you have to go to Jersey to get the best views of the City!

Morgan and I had to travel to Hoboken, New Jersey for night #2 of our beloved Mason Jennings concert extravagaanza (over Columbus Day weekend). Hoboken lies just across the Hudson River and only one stop on the PATH train, so it is crazy that I hadn't been to visit this quaint little town a single time in all of 2009! The best part about Hoboken are the amazing skyline views of Manhattan from the beautiful waterfront park. After the concert we stopped by the park to take it all in before returning to Manhattan. It's so very quiet, peaceful, and tranquil there...and so surreal, because Manhattan from across the river and all lit up at night also appears to be peaceful and tranquil.
