The esplanade is really a good place to walk, exercise, meditate, or walk your dog. It has plenty of benches and 2 small dog parks. The esplanade is always well maintained and connects with Pier 34, where you can take the different boats to Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Wall Street, or to a pier on the Hudson River. The esplanade also connects to the heliport. NYU hospitals are nearby, so the esplanade provides a good place for people, with relatives in the hospital, to take a break.

As always Copacabana has great and delicious food for a very affordable price. I highly recommend it. Their grill section is the best and their picanha is out of this world! I live in Manhattan and every time I come to Jackson Heights I eat here. Staff also is very friendly. KUDOS!!!
