What readers asked about April
Ask meProspect Park is so much better than Central Park for actually relaxing. Less crowded, the lake is beautiful, and Smorgasburg is right there on weekends.
Prospect Park GuideWent to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden based on this and the timing was perfect. The cherry blossoms were at peak and it was magical.
Where to Find Cherry Blossoms in New YorkThe outdoor dining section is so good. Nothing beats a sidewalk table on a 65 degree day in April after surviving winter here.
