We accidentally stumbled upon Union Square Park (we’re not usually that far downtown). It’s a very picturesque area and very nice.

The homeless situation is out of control due to liberal laws. Do not stay around Union Square! We stayed for 6 nights and witnessed 4 robberies. Each morning urine all over the streets, food and homeless in each shop doorway. I have never been anywhere and seen homeless people sleeping in all of the designer shop doorways Gucci, Jimmy Choo etc. It was an eye opener much dirtier than New York back streets. This was a place I had dreamed of visiting for years and bitterly disappointed.…
