A Slice of NYC Paradise
Just a few minutes from Manhattan Island on the 6 Subway headed Uptown untill the last stop is a walkable paradise island.
City Island offers all the attraction, charm and convenience of a small New England fishing village that will make your day trip worthwhile.
Summer is outdoor season in City Island, with thousands of visitors to the restaurants and nearby Pelham Park and The Bronx Riviers. Family-owned shops are also a must.

CITY IMAGES
CITY IMAGES https://cimages.me began 12 years ago, with the idea of holding the powerful to account. Twelve years later, our roots go deep and wide. And that’s because we believe that digital journalism makes Democracy stronger as the information ecosystem becomes more accurate.
Our work is driven by purpose rather than profit, we depend on your support and other readers like you to keep us going. Without #CityImages, our stories would go untold.
