    Full disclosure, I'm a Yankees fan. However, my wife and I love all things baseball and our goal is to visit all of the ballparks. Citi Field was our 15th park and it's honestly a great ballpark. Getting here was super easy and the subway brings you right outside the park. We came for a Mets-Yankees game and it was a really fun atmosphere, lots of heckling, but no fights and just a good, fun rivalry. Drinks were great and they have lots of options, which was a good thing since we had a rain delay and had time to kill. The real standout here was the food and this was some of the best ballpark food we've experienced. My wife loved her lobster roll and I absolutely loved my porchetta sandwich. Ours views of the game were also great and it's a very nice ballpark overall!

    We were on a tour and stopped for about 15 minutes - enough time for some photos at the Unisphere. Installed in 1964 for the World Fair it has also featured in 'Men in Black' and 'Men in Black III'.

    Took so many photos at Fan Week… it’s free to see players up close without the main draw fees! But a day at Wimbledon is still on my bucket list 😉

    Excellent zoo a real gem.

    Very well laid out so you see everything without a lot of doubling back on yourself.

    Great value for money and a lot more animals than expected.

    Friendly and helpful staff.

    Would definitely recommend

    We had fun visiting the hall of science. Our son is only 3 so we did not see everything. He really enjoyed the mini golf, bubbles, and the preschool area. We hope to visit again when we have more time.

    I performed on stage and loved the intimacy of the place. It's open and available for visual, oral and other types of art. If you're local artist, it's a must, if your not so local it's still worth checking out. They also have a cool collection of Jazz-Greats photos

    While the museum is not very big, it does hold some really cool memorabilia from the worlds fair. It also houses a huge map of many burrows of New York City. All free and All worth checking out. When I visited they were turning over the gallery exhibits resulting in very little to see in the museum.

    New York City is full of little known and seldom visited gems. The Voelker Orth Museum, Bird Sanctuary, and Garden, tucked away in a corner of Flushing, is one such. Built in 1891, the property was acquired by a first generation German immigrant, Conrad Voelker, in 1899, presumably to be near other reasonably well off middle class German families who were quite numerous in the area. Indeed, there were enough Germans in the city then to support seven German language newspapers, and Voelker published one of them, traveling daily to Long Island City by the newly built Long Island Railroad and then, by ferry, to Manhattan. He had a daughter, Theresa, who married Dr. Rudolph Orth, another first-generation German immigrant, who came to live with his in-laws; hence the double-barreled name of the house.
    Theresa's daughter Elsabetha grew up to be a fine scholar of English literature, obtained a degree, and taught for several years on Long Island. She was also a gardener, birder, a lover of art and Nature, and built up a respectable personal library which was housed in a small, cosy, comfortable room, a subsequent addition to the original house. Never married, she devoted her life to looking after her mother and bequeathed the property to the Queens Historical Society upon her own demise.
    The house has been immaculately and lovingly renovated to reflect the life of a cultured and comfortable, but not particularly rich middle class family in the 1920s. Many of the features in the building are original, while several others are reflective of the taste of the period. The living room holds an old phonograph among other objects, the library is a tasteful and welcoming room, and the dining room has a number of items which belonged to the family. The small hall has a cabinet full of curious clay German figurines or hummels. The woodwork and moldings need special attention since they reflect the trained and careful craftsmanship of German workmen. Upstairs the bed in Elisabetha's bedroom is original, there is an intriguing case for thimbles, and the window is shaped like an eyebrow, a not uncommon style for windows in parts of Europe but seldom seen on our shores.
    The garden, though small, is a sheer delight. Well tended, it had a fine display of tulips and a flowering cherry when we were there, as well as a large number of other plants that would interest a botanist. In fact, one of the volunteers who worked in the house has published a pamphlet on the weeds of the garden. Though it was afternoon, there were a few birds about, and apparently the garden is visited by many birds throughout the year, which makes this place an unusually welcome haven in the middle of a heavily built up commercial and residential area.
    The house and grounds are open to visitors on Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays from 1 to 4 p.m. Admission is free, but donations of $2 or more are gladly accepted. A welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly docent is present to guide visitors around the house.
    Not the least attractive feature of the house is the large number of programs that are held there throughout the year, whether they are intimate chamber music concerts, or small exhibitions, or little walking tours, or weddings. A small but well equipped kitchen enables the organizers to serve refreshments to the participants. All told, the house is a treasure, and the trustees do everything to make it as accessible and as much of a community resource as possible.
