Nestled in the uber-hip Lower East Side neighborhood, the bar atop the Hotel Rivington is a sight to see - if you can get up there. "Making your way to the Hotel on Rivington’s rooftop involves a near-Herculean effort: up the elevator to the twentieth floor, down a narrow hallway, through an indoor bar area, up a glass staircase, through another bar space, up an even steeper stairway.
And, finally, to your destination. There—if not spoiled by the attitude, the thick cigarette smoke, and the thicker crowds—is your reward: the remarkable, near-panoramic views of Manhattan," NYMag.com reports. The Rivington Hotel is located at 107 Rivington St.
