The architecture has a lot of character. Stroll through the old building facades, Art Deco windows, and beautifully crafted details - perfect for those who love retro/classic/light-story photography.
• There are rooftop/terrace/viewpoints for taking photos of the city and the river, plus a different perspective of the city beyond the high-rise Financial District that everyone often visits.
• A good cafe and restaurant - if you're craving brunch or upscale food, coffee in a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere, this place is the perfect choice.
• Great public spaces: stroll through the alleys, inner plazas, and stone steps for a break, offering a variety of lighting and shadows. If you're into lighting and shadows, and a slow-paced lifestyle, you'll definitely love it.
⚠️
• It's crowded, especially on weekends and during the golden hour. If you visit outside of the early morning or late evening, you might encounter a crowd of people taking photos, and you might have to wait in line to take photos.
