"Riverpark is a restaurant in the bottom of a big office building on the far eastern end of 29th Street. It’s an upscale place where you can eat with some family members or doctors who work at a nearby hospital - and, if you just want to have a drink, it has a casual outdoor area with a view of the East River (and the FDR). It’s called the Beer Garden, and despite the name, you can also have wine and cocktails here. So if you want to escape from other people for an afternoon, stop by, grab a big picnic table, and play tic-tac-toe here." - bryan kim
