offManhattan is the only online resource for destinations off the island that are reachable without a car. Founded in 2007, oM exists to promote a “greener” mode of life while providing readers with a getaway train, bus, subway, bike, or bridge to anywhere but here. For New Yorkers or tourists who need ideas on how to spend a few hours or a long weekend sans the nuisance of driving, the staff has mapped out and researched anti-vehicle directions to the featured places (be it restaurants, mountains, vineyards, flea markets, concert venues, beaches, boutiques or beer gardens).
These sections were designed to best facilitate your car-free oM adventure:
- Weekend Getaways
- Dining & Nightlife
- Leisure
- Arts
- Events
- Transportation Advisor
- Big Map
