You're looking at the view from the terrace at the Boat Basin Cafe. We spent the late afternoon here with some friends before stuffing ourselves with the city's best Chinese food.
Although it is really just a stone landing with plastic lawn chairs in the massive stone stairways that surround Riverside Park and the West Side Highway, the view is great, the beer selection is small but decent, and the food is surprisingly good. We enjoyed several pitchers of a Fire Island Lighthouse Ale, a tasty fruit and greens salad, and a bratwurst. It's a great place to hang on a warm summer day. Just make sure to pick a seat under the umbrellas for shade.
