Things to Do: Park Here, The Indoor Pop-Up Park, NYC

Park Here, The Indoor Pop-Up Park 201 Mulberry St./Spring St., 212-344-0288. Dec-Feb, daily noon-8pm. Free. New Yorkers and visitors who grow tired of winter’s snow and cold weather can find refuge in indoor parks that pop-up around the city. In addition to frolicking on recycled synthetic NewGrass and basking in the heated air, visitors can sip Starbucks and other drinks, view films, and just relax on a picnic blanket, hammock, or park bench. Wi-Fi is free. Mornings are reserved for moms and their young children. But hurry, this year the park’s last day is February 15.
