The longer, warmer days are ideal for exploring Van Cort-
landt Park in the Bronx, a sprawling urban oasis with a
golf course, nature center, tennis courts and a freshwater
lake great for fishing. While there, be sure to visit the Van
Cortlandt House Museum, the borough’s oldest existing
building. Kids will love the games, rides and interactive
demonstrations at the Carnival & Science Spectacular at
the Staten Island Children’s Museum, and thrill seekers
shouldn’t miss the 90th birthday bash for the Cyclone at
Coney Island’s Luna Park—the landmark roller coaster
is as exhilarating as ever!

Bill de Blasio
