Timeline
17:05
Grab a drink at Femme Bar. It is just an eight minute walk from the theatre. The bar opens at 17:00 on weekdays and later on weekends. Check the exact opening hours for your day before you go.
17:33
Walk 26 minutes northwest to Elm Park. This grand old park was one of the first public parks in the US. Find a spot on Newton Hill or the main lawn where the trees part enough to catch the view.
18:05
Watch the sunset. On 15 October the sun sets toward the W at 18:05. The golden light begins at 17:27, giving you plenty of time to settle in before the final moment.
18:35
Head back toward the city center. The Mercantile is a seven minute walk away. It serves American food and stays open late, making it a easy spot to wind down after the evening chill.
Local tip
The walk to Elm Park is short but the park is large. Allow enough time to find a good vantage point before the sun dips below the horizon.
