NYC FurWalk Takes on Roosevelt Island!

For the last FurWalk of 2026, we wanted to take the group to another part of the city that many who have lived here all their lives may not have ever considered visiting - Roosevelt Island! This island sits on the East River between Manhattan and Queens (legally being a part of the former), offering spectacular views of Midtown Manhattan, the Queensboro Bridge, and Long Island City. With spectacular views comes spectacular opportunities for fursuit photography! So if you want to see yourself and/or your friends strut their stuff with towering skyline views in the background, this is the time and place to do it!

And as we wrap up our year of FurWalks and other exciting NYC FurMeets events, we want to thank each and every one of you for joining us throughout our short, yet exciting history as a group. None of what we do would be possible without the amazing love and support of the NYC furry community <3

Have any suggestions for where we should explore for our FurWalks in 2027? Reach out to us at info@nycfurmeets.org!
