Manhattan Skyline

The Manhattan skyline and Roosevelt Island in the United States is a stunning sight to behold. Miles of towering skyscrapers line up along the Hudson River, rising high into the New York City skyline. The buildings provide a stark contrast to Roosevelt Island which to the south lays small and uninhabited with its parks, playgrounds and greenery. Photographers will appreciate the island's sweeping views of the East River, the Empire State Building, and the rest of the NYC skyline. Travelers can enjoy a variety of activities from scenic tram rides across the river, exploring the parks and nature trails, or simply soaking in the panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline.
