Let’s keep this brief.

This year, the Fourth of July fireworks are back on the East River...

... in a very small area...

... where only the luckiest of rooftops will have a prime view.

...

But because we want—nay, need—you to have the most spectacular view possible of America’s foremost explosives-based celebration, we fashioned a map of those rooftops for you. We call it... The UrbanDaddy NYC Guide to Watching the Fireworks. Clever, right?

There’ll be beer. There’ll be BBQ. And there’ll be advanced cartography.

Soak it all in here...
