An Art-Filled Walk Along the Waterfront 
Day’s End, Hudson River Park

The Whitney Museum sits just steps away from the Hudson River. Savor the fall foliage and brisk air with a stroll along the waterfront (the park and pathway run from Tribeca to West 59th Street). Hovering just offshore from the Whitney is a giant but delicate sculpture by artist David Hammons called Day’s End. Silvery beams trace the silhouette of a pier that formerly occupied this site and was an important fixture to many artists and the neighborhood community. To learn more about this artwork and the history of the piers, check out the Whitney’s podcast or take our self-guided walking tour of the neighborhood.
