NYC & Company, New York City’s official marketing, tourism and partnership organisation, today announced City Island and Pelham Bay Park in the Bronx as the next destinations to be featured in Neighborhood x Neighborhood. Accessible by bus, train or car, City Island and Pelham Bay Park offer visitors plenty to see and do in the City’s greenest borough, from horseback riding and golfing to dining at seafood restaurants and enjoying seaside activities.
“This summer is the perfect time to enjoy all that City Island and Pelham Bay Park have to offer from the Bronx’s only public beach, Orchard Beach, to the popular seafood restaurants and harbor views along City Island Avenue. We encourage both New Yorkers and visitors to explore the Bronx communities and experience City Island’s fishing-village charm and Pelham Bay Park’s 2,700 acres of adventure and breathtaking scenery,” said Marty Markowitz, Vice President, Borough Promotion and Engagement at NYC & Company
In order to continue to grow New York City’s tourism industry, Neighborhood x Neighborhood targets repeat visitors, intrepid first-time visitors and New Yorkers seeking new adventures here in their home city. The campaign was designed to highlight the diversity of offerings in New York City’s five boroughs, encourage exploration in areas outside traditional tourist locations and generate economic activity in the featured neighborhoods.
