Visit Governors Island

There are events for people of all ages, including the renowned Governor's Ball. Go to Governors Island NYC if the weather is pleasant in New York City and you want to get away from the bustle of the city.
The history of Governors Island is extensive. The US Army used the 70-acre island as a base for many years, up to the 1960s. Older maps of New York do not include the island because it was regarded as a top-secret site. The military withdrew after the cold war. Unfortunately, the island was neglected more and more.
In order to turn the island into a recreational area, the federal government sold it to the City of New York in 2003 for a (very symbolic) $1. You can visit now and view all of the historic houses that have been preserved, the Fort Jay barracks, different schools, Castle Williams prison, a hospital, a church, old supermarkets, and an old theatre. Everything seems abandoned. There are many resting areas, green spaces, and a little miniature golf course designed for guests, inviting you to enjoy in the island.
Coby Club
Coby Club
Every name has a meaning. Chinatown in San Francisco, 1959. Coby Club honours the iconic artistry of its most well-known performer, Miss Coby Yee, by drawing inspiration from the most explosive and controversial era of San Francisco nightlife. Relive a bygone era when sensuous music filtered through sumptuous draperies and onto foggy streets, the night guarded your secrets, and the dawn's endless possibilities.
Live, impromptu performances take place every night between 9 and 11. Enjoy musical performances by jazz singers, Broadway actors, or burlesque acts that transport you to the 1950s.
