8 Sights & Landmarks in Carnegie Hill That You Shouldn't Miss
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

A couple of blocks north of the Guggenheim, Cooper-Hewitt projects a sense of peaceful isolation, with an imposing iron gate protecting Andrew Carnegie's splendid mansion. With its eclectic but vivid exhibits it is very much worth the short walk uptown. (And you should see this part of Fifth Avenue anyway.) At the moment Cooper-Hewitt is showing Nature by Design, featuring four centuries worth of selections from its permanent collection, including jewelry, textiles, and furnitures by designers interpreting nature's beauty and science. And in celebration of the centenary of the founding of the Bauhaus in Weimar, it has a compelling exhibit on Herbert Bayer, who spent his most productive years in the US, especially Chicago and Aspen. Cooper-Hewitt's interactive presentations will enchant the kids, especially Face Values, which takes composites of your features & tells you who you are, and Curiosity Cloud, a gorgeous chandelier w/ tiny sculptured chattering insects that you can wander through & around, producing different musical sounds and sensations. And so much more!

The Sunday choral Eucharist service included some great music by the choir. And the coffee meet and greet following the service included not only the usual coffee and donuts but also chilli and cornbread.
