NYC Cool Options

When it's very hot, air conditioning will help keep you safe. If you don't have air conditioning, find a cool place to visit nearby, like a friend’s place, a mall, museum, coffee shop, library, or an NYC cooling center. When it's not scorching out but it's still hot, you can also cool off at parks, areas with shade, sprinklers, or pools. Cooling center locations can also be found by calling 311 (VRS: 212-639-9675 or TTY: 212-504-4115).
