I've lived in New York City for 22 years and my favorite thing to do costs $5.50
It might not seem like a possibility given that New York City is one of the most expensive places to live in.
But if you look around, you'll find an abundance of free things to do.
The one place I find myself gravitating back to all the time is Brooklyn Bridge Park - and it only costs $5.50.
Just to be clear, that's the price of transportation via subway to and from the park.
Most of the activities and park usage is free, and there are always events going on such as yoga sessions, basketball clinics, concerts, and more. You can check out the full list on Brooklyn Bridge Park's website.
Here's what a walk through my favorite park looks like.
