New York City

The photograph shows New York City's skyline, with One World Trade Center above Lower Manhattan. It introduces the city at a broad scale: towers, water and a dense urban waterfront. The LGBTQ+ history relevant to this trip is found at a separate location in Greenwich Village. For queer travel, New York City offers a concrete historical stop at Stonewall National Monument. Christopher Park, the Stonewall Inn and the surrounding streets are associated with the 1969 uprising, a milestone in the struggle for LGBTQ+ civil rights. Plan that visit as a distinct part of the day; these sites are not depicted in the skyline photograph.
