Activity itinerary

Housing Works Bookstore

Where Taylor filmed the final scene for her “All Too Well 10 Minute Version” Music video.

The Bowery Hotel

This is believed to be the inspiration behind Joe Alwyn’s pseudonym as the pair had their first public outing here while going to a private Kings of Leon concert.

Lafayette Grand Café & Bakery

This Tik Tok-famous cafe is also one of Taylor's favorite places to visit in NYC. She has been spotted here with several friends, including Tavi Gevinson, who was in the HBO reboot of Gossip Girl.

Washington Square Park

Taylor's Cornelia Street apartment was located right by Washington Square Park. This park is also the unofficial campus square for New York University, and in 2022, Taylor gave an impressive and inspirational commencement speech at NYU’s graduation.

Electric Lady Studios

Taylor has recorded several of her albums and rerecords here. Other recent recordings here are Sabrina Carpenter’s “Please Please Please,” Gracie Abrams’ “The Secret of Us” and The Bleachers, which is Jack Antanoff’s band. Jack is Taylor Swift’s longtime collaborator, and Sabrina and Gracie have opened for Taylor on her Eras Tour.

23 Cornelia St

Taylor Swift rented 23 Cornelia Street back in 2016 while her Tribeca home was being renovated. Originally built in 1870 as a carriage house, this extraordinary 4 bedroom 6 bathroom townhouse blends timeless elegance with contemporary flair.

Apartment Building from the TV Show Friends

Taylor has mentioned several times that she is a huge Friends fan and says it is her favorite show. She even loves to marathon watch Friends to chill out after her shows. This building is famously known as the exterior of the apartment where the characters lived. Taylor’s favorite friends episode is “The One Where Everybody Finds Out” which is when everyone finds out about Monica and Chandler dating.

Stonewall National Monument

Known for being the first U.S National Monument dedicated to LGBTQ+ rights and history. Taylor Swift has been a notable ally to the LGBTQ+ community, using her platform to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and inclusivity. Her song “You Need to Calm Down” from her 2019 album Lover is a direct call for acceptance and support, reflecting her commitment to ending discrimination.

Waverly Inn

Taylor has been seen dining here numerous times with friends and partners. In October 2023, she was seen leaving with boyfriend Travis Kelce, a day after they were both featured in the SNL Season 49 Premiere.

Bus Stop Cafe

In the song "The 1" from the Folklore album, Taylor sings “I thought I saw you at the bus stop." Fans were confused about this but then did some digging and believe that this cafe might be what she is referencing. It’s only a theory – what do you believe?

The High Line

One of Taylor Swift's most popular songs called "Cardigan" mentions The High Line. In the Folklore song she sings about hearing "your heartbeat on the High Line," while recounting memories. She even goes on to say that images of The High Line popped into her head and inspired her when writing the album.
