The park at Union Square. It's nice to see people here enjoying it all day, lounging on the grass, reading on benches, eating lunch under trees--ooh-- and people playing chess. I don't know what amuses me more--watching these guys spar on the board or watching the people watch them. Spectators are engrossed in these matches. And they're great for the same reason the subway can be great: they draw people of many races, ethnicities and ages together for moments throughout the day.
