Marco in New York

Amazing location, spectacular view of Florence’s cathedral.
it’s on the Second floor inside the public library.
Good selection of food and drinks.
Tables inside are reserved for the bar customers.

Really glad this little gem is still making great gelato after so many years.
Haven’t been there in a while but their lemon and sage is a classic!

Fresh ingredients and large smiles.
Must try when in Florence

Magnificent cathedral with mindblowing details to discover.
Do your best to visit when the mosaic floor is “open” (once a year)

The organization could be better though.
- If you buy the ticket in advance you have to print it in high quality (see my pic attached) really? In 2023? The barcode on the ticket is not enough?
- the audioguide is not that detailed. 40-90secs per section is not enough. do your best to read about it before going there to have a better experience.
- going to the gift shop/bathrooms is weird. The corridor intersects with a booth (they sell tickets?) anyway they place a tiny red label on your clothes so they can recognize you.

Overall: go visit it!

Paved trail: it’s basically the entrance of the needham forest.
The tall electric poles are kind of bummer (ugly) other than that it’s ok

It’s a neat place with A LOT of seating available which is unusual for NYC.
The grass is fake but soft.
There s a playground for kids and a dog area.
Couldn’t find a toilet but plenty of cafeterias around.
