Driving New York at Sunset: Midtown to Times Square

A long drive that circles almost all of Manhattan as the sun goes down and ends among the lights of Times Square. It joins the FDR Drive along the East River, passes the Queensboro Bridge and heads up through the Upper East Side to Upper Manhattan and Manhattanville, then comes back down the Upper West Side.

The middle of the video covers the West Village, SoHo, the Financial District and the Battery at the island's southern tip; by the time it returns through SoHo and the West Village it is dark. The final stretch crosses Central Park and runs along Fifth Avenue to Midtown and Times Square at night. Recorded with binaural sound, so headphones are worth it.
