Citi Field, the home field of the New York Mets, is one of the most gorgeous baseball stadiums of Major League Baseball (MLB). My wife and I have attended multiple New York Mets baseball games at Citi Field and we have enjoyed each of our experiences at the stadium. The seats are quite comfortable and provide fans great access and views of the Mets players and the baseball game. My wife and I found the food selection to be tasty and superb, appreciated the support and service provided by the stadium’s staff, and we also enjoyed visiting the New York Mets Hall Of Fame & Museum. All in all, my wife and I had a wonderful baseball experiences at Citi Field, and look forward to the day when the threat of COVID 19 ends and when Citi Field opens it doors to fans again.

Get your tickets on ticketmastere. If you can get the tickets when they are first released you are going to pay a good cheap price. It not.... you get them as a resale and people jack up the price to double or triple what they paid. Check back ofter as the tennis center continuously releases seats up until the week the match starts. The evenings usually have the better players but you can still get Nadal, Federer in the day too! It is just luck of the draw. There are souvenirs (clothing) shops all over the grounds and they don't all have the same items. American Express usually has som give aways like fans etc. Emerities has a lottery for logo cushions and multiple activities and photo ops tucked into little corners and coves. Explore the grounds for the best experience. Food is very pricy and usually not worth the price - substandard. A medium sized bottle of water is $6.50. Many were refilling them at the water fountains. People seem to rampantly try to sit in better seats than they paid for and you have to kick someone out of your seat again and again. Then the irritation of people in front of you having to kick people out which block the game time and time again. When purchasing seats, take note that sun hits in the upper and right side during most of the day and unbearable heat and sun in your eyes is the result. Most of those attendees were the ones stealing others seats during the day matches. Also when the a viewer shows a view from the seat, take note that it is a view from the center of that section, not the actual seat. The 300 rows have a plexiglass shield that blocks many seats views when close to a walkway. This is not evident in the seat view photo. but a big surprise when you go to your seat and find it is obstructed view. The number 7 subway train is the only train that stops at the tennis center. It is the second to last stop. the express stops there and is a 7 inside a diamond shape last appeased to the local (makes many more stops) which is signified with inside a circle. 7 uptown will take you there. The express only runs weekdays for 3:30 - 9:30pm. Trains run every few minutes when matches are let out. At night they may even have an express train running on the first set of tracks you encounter and there will be a man yelling to that effect. Hop on it as it will be an express train running a special after hours schedule. The 7 will take you to many connecting points and does stop at Times Square with is the most popular hotel spot for tourist.

Queens Botanical Garden evolved from the 5-acre “Gardens on Parade” exhibit showcased at the 1939–1940 World’s Fair. Officially opening as “The Queens Botanical Garden Society” in 1946 after local residents saved and expanded the original exhibit, the Garden remained at the original World’s Fair site until 1961, when it was moved to its current location on Main Street in Flushing. Among the original plantings taken from the 1939 site are two blue atlas cedars that frame the iconic tree gate sculpture at the Garden’s Main Street entrance today. QBG has become a 39-acre oasis in one of New York City’s most bustling and diverse neighborhoods and is unlike any other botanical garden in the world.
