On Oct 16th, my Dear Husband and I will have a morning and afternoon free in New York City (Manhattan). We could go to a museum, but we have done that so often, in so many cities of the world...

I know that Central Park is a great birdwatching location, but I have trouble walking and standing. We won't have a car. Does anybody know of any places to sit and birdwatch? We would probably have to have a cab drop us off.

I can probably walk a quarter mile to a site.   

I have looked at web sites, but none of them get down to brass tacks.
