If you have time, you should definitely plan a detour to the aircraft carrier. I have visited him several times in the meantime. Worth it.

Hudson Yards

Highlight • Settlement

The New York skyline is changing - and indeed significantly! Because since 2012, the New Yorkers are building a "little town" in the middle of Manhattan - the Hudson Yards New York. It is the most elaborate construction project in New York's history since the establishment of the Rockefeller Center. Overall, in the west of Manhattan on the banks of the Hudson River several office buildings, 4000 apartment, hotels, a public school, more than 100 shops and numerous restaurants and parks arise. The construction project of superlatives, similar to the World Trade Center, a new business center in Manhattan let arise. One of the buildings - the 10 Hudson Yards, a 270 meter high skyscraper - opened in May 2016.

There are many interesting aircraft on deck, including the Concorde. The aircraft carrier also includes a submarine that can and wants to be visited. A must for aviation and/or seafaring enthusiasts.
