Jumping over East River

Ok so you can't actually jump over East River but you can ride 200ft over it! 
For just a standard New York MTA subway charge you can travel from New York to Roosevelt Island on a 4 minute cable car journey. 


The views are outstanding, and even with a maximum of 125 other people sharing this fabulous experience with you!.. In fact if anything it adds to the atmosphere!  Travelling at 16mph for a duration of four minutes, there is plenty of time to take some great pictures. 

The trams run every quarter of an hour from 6am- 2.30am from the Tramway Plaza, 59th St., 2nd Ave. to Roosevelt Island. 

The island itself is definitely worth the visit  with the New and beautifully tranquil Franklin D. Roosevelt- Our Freedoms Park and spectacular views of New York City!
