3 Gifts For People Who Love New York City

by Tracy Kaler

Searching for a last-minute present for the New York City lover? Take a look at these three crafty gift options representing and celebrating NYC.

This reversible subway map tote lets you have it both ways. Spoil yourself this Christmas, or give one to a distant cousin, college roommate, pen pal, or any New York lover close at heart but not in miles. Crafted of vegan leather, 12 1/2 in H x 14 in W x 6 in D, with an 8-inch drop for the strap. Price is $68. Use code: RMT-WHRED for free shipping. NYC Subway Line offers a host of other gifts for people who love NYC.

These miniature art prints feature six watercolor paintings by New York City artist Jillian Hollmann. Use as note cards or frame and hang.  Images include sunset views with a dog walker along the Hudson River Esplanade and 79th Street Boat Basin, Riverside Park in the fall, and a view up West End Avenue.

Cards are made of 80 lb. paper with a felt finish, and come in boxed sets of 6 with matching envelopes.  Each set is $20, before shipping and sales tax.  Order from the artist on etsy.com.

This minimalist map of Manhattan and Central Park features over 100 NYC-based book titles. Artist Peter Gorman recently completed a one-year, 11,000-mile, solo bicycle trip around the US. After completing the trip, he was a hit by a car and broke both legs and fractured his spine. During his recovery, he began designing graphic maps based on several places he visited on his journey, including New York City. Available in 8 in x 10 in ($18), 11 in x 14 in ($22), and 13 in x 19 in ($31). Sales tax and shipping are additional. Order from the artist on Etsy.
