Atkinson told Insider that the couple's visit had been kept low-key.
"A lot of my journalist friends who cover the royals didn't even know they would be there," she said.
Despite this, the crowd started to pick up with photographers and royal fans alike. Atkinson said she was surprised by the number of teenagers in the crowd.
While in the area, they also paid a visit to the 9/11 Memorial.
