NYC's New Amusement Park of Adults - Hudson Yards

Visitors to New York City have a new playground that is now part of the Manhattan skyline.
Rising above a dozen acres (five hectares) of rail yard in the West 30s Manhattan is Hudson Yards, a shiny new neighborhood and destination in New York City. Indeed, it’s been some 80 years since the city witnessed the birth of a development of this magnitude, when Rockefeller Center opened in the 1930s.
The $25 billion development, which runs from 10th to 12th Avenues and 30th to 34th Streets, was built on a $1 billion platform over the eastern end of the West Side Yard, a storage facility for the Long Island Railroad. The first phase comprises eight structures including several apartment buildings, a hotel, office buildings, a mall, and an arts center.
When the development over the western end is complete, it will have 16 buildings including 4,000 apartments, a school, parkland, and accommodate 55,000 workers at a variety of companies ranging from CNN and WarnerMedia (which are both moving from the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle) to L’Oréal, SAP, and Wells Fargo.
