Architecture Tour on the Yacht Kingston

Architecture Tour by Boat: Explore Manhattan's Landmarks From the Kingston

View Manhattan through the lens of an architecture expert from aboard a 1920s mini-style yacht. Sip an included glass of champagne and feel the ocean breeze on your face as you explore the sights of the city and hear architectural narration from a member of the American Institute of Architects. Get the details on the new World Trade Center buildings and hear about the city's recent "starchitecture" boom, including buildings by Frank Gehry and other famous architects. Learn about Manhattan's classic spires, like those on the Chrysler and Woolworth buildings, and its famous sites, like the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and the Brooklyn and Washington Bridges. Plus, discover new gems, like the lesser-known "swing bridges" along the Harlem River and the latest waterfront monument, Roosevelt Island's FDR Four Freedoms Park. Hear about plans for a waterfront "6th Borough," and much more. It's the perfect adventure for locals and tourists alike, giving you a view of the city you just can't get anywhere else.
