We asked students at the Law School a series of questions about what it’s really like to live and study at NYU. Here’s how they answered:
Where do you go in the city if you need to get away from campus and clear your head?
I like to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. It’s a nice walk through SoHo and Chinatown, and then across the water.
I go running along the path next to the Hudson River.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Never underestimate the head-clearing powers of an aimless walk around the city.
I go to Carroll Gardens in Brooklyn. It’s quiet, and you can sit in a yard or on a stoop and remember that there are places where the cabs don’t swerve and splash you with puddle water.
Take a walk around SoHo or Central Park, or go to any one of a thousand different coffee shops.
A bar, any bar. :-)
The Boat Basin on the Upper West Side.
The pier at the end of Charles Street. You stand over the Hudson River with an incredible view. It’s very relaxing.
At night, I’ll go to SOB’s, a salsa club on Varick Street, and during the day I’ll check out the Museum of Modern Art.
