Friends of Morningside Park
14 Morningside AveQuiet peaceful famous park.
Great small zoo right in Central Park. See the sea lions get fed and show off. Red pandas, polar bears, tropical birds and -- my favorites -- the snow monkeys. Family friendly with food court and restrooms.

Getting Around
No. No. No. Pay no attention to the label I can't override.
You can catch the M5 at 135th Street and Riverside Drive.
Route travels Riverside Drive. You can get off at 125th Street to visit historic Riverside Church or 122nd to see who's REALLY buried in Grant's Tomb.
The bus route also travels down Fifth Avenue. You can get off in the 50's to visit St. Patrick's Cathedral, Saks Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, Radio City and the Diamond District (47th Street).
Slow but much cheaper than the hop-on-hop-off buses.
