Nearly 15 breathtaking acres of manicured land hug the East River on Manhattan's Upper East Side, providing a respite from the concrete jungle. Treasured by locals and welcoming to visitors, Carl Shurz Park is a historic piece of NYC. "I've always felt a really strong bond with my city. It's always been home," said John McPheters of stadiumgoods. "As a kid, we'd play stickball, skateboard, ride our bikes, and would literally be between two avenues. We wouldn't go very far, but it was ours." #HeinekenNYC #OpenYourCity #21+
