For Beautiful views of manhattan and its bridges i highly recommend taking the Ferry once. Its great if you have a day planned in lower manhattan, because you can get off on Wall street downtown. you can walk from the apartment. Make a left out of the apartment towards 8th street, than make a left on 8th street, walk 420 ft and take right, walk another 490 ft than the destination will be on your left. I literary copied this from my Google and Apple maps :-) I don't leave the house without them, which you can find on your smart phone :-)
