I took my drone off from Cherry Hill, which is west of Bethesda Fountain in Central Park. I flew a bit east and was able to frame the Upper East Side skyline.
By Subway:
- Closest Station: 72 Street (C Train)
- Enter the park from Women's Gate at West 72nd Street and Central Park West.
- Follow Terrace Drive toward the intersection of Central Park West Drive.
- At the bottom of the hill, make a left and walk east along Terrace Drive toward Cherry Hill.
