"Tompkins Square Park sits at the heart of the East Village. Travelers can grab a famous bagel from Tompkins Square Bagels or venture from one of St. Marks Place's many bars and restaurants. This park made this list for two reasons. One simply because I love Mumford & Sons and they have a song written after this park. Major main character vibes to listen to that song in this park. The other is its major historical significance to Manhattan and specifically to the East Village. More recently, the area has been pretty gentrified but before this area was a gritty melting pot of culture, art, and turmoil. Tompkins Square Park could be seen at the center of it all. In 1988, a riot erupted here as police attempted to remove the large homeless population that had settled here. "
