As an aging hipster I would recommend St Mark's Place in the East Village, Joey Ramone's apartment building that he lived in nearby, the site of where CBGB's was, the former Luna Lounge location, Mercury Lounge, Bowery Ballroom, Irving Plaza, Veniero's Italian Pastry, Cooper Union (Abe Lincoln gave his House Divided speech here in 1860), and the old site of Trash & Vaudeville. There is also McSorley's Ale House, Katz's Deli, the building where the Village Voice is located, and Veselka Ukrainian Restaurant. These are all within walking distance and if you research them on line first, you will learn a lot about the rise of various music and art scenes that would go on to influence the world.

My first trip to NYC, I paid for 3 things and they were all worth it: Empire State Building (lower observation deck), Central Park pedicab tour (booked and paid for in advance) and the City Sights hop on, hop off bus (also booked and paid for in advance). The bus offered 4 tours in addition to the hop on, hop off option. It also included a boat ride that went out by the Statute of Liberty and admission to the Museum of the City of NY which was basically an ode to Joel Grey (big waste of time). My second trip I did a bicycle tour of Central Park (also booked and paid for in advance) and the particular guide I had was phenomenal! I also went to the 911 Memorial, which I think every American should visit at least once, if possible. The rest of my trips were spent enjoying the architecture of the main Library, Grand Central, and the Waldorf Astoria, and spending an afternoon in Battery Park. All of which was free. The High Line was not even conceived of at that point, so I will be sure to do that the next time I make it up there. I'm also interested in seeing The Cloisters and visiting a couple of museums.

I can't believe going inside the Statue of Liberty ranked so high! I went up back when I was in high school - I was thoroughly unimpressed. It was super slow going because you had to wait so long for all the people ahead of you to take a step, it was hot and it was boring. You can barely see out the little windows. Ellis Island was cool and it was cool to see the outside of the Statue of Liberty, but I definitely don't recommend climbing it.

I was in NYC last week, for the second time since 2018 and I had looked at your ranking of observatories beforehand and then switched from Top of the Rock to Summit last minute - no regrets. I designed the trip to be equally exciting for me as a second timer and my partner who was flying to NYC for the first time. But my personal highlight was the proposal in Central Park under a random cherry tree.

I highly recommend taking a tour with a tour guide of the Brooklyn Bridge. People take it for granted, but they shouldn't. The history behind the bridge is fascinated. It isn't just an important history even in NYC, but for America. So, I did a tour around 2018, and the tour guide was excellent, but I can't remember the name. There are probably others though. Check the ratings.

Florida beaches are really nice and you’re like spoiled for choice. The thing is what do you want in a beach is the thing. Daytona is great for families just to get away for a day, Clearwater is nice for couples, cocoa is a fun all around beach, and new symerna is near Daytona but is quieter. South beach isn’t for me as the scene is about seeing and being seen. I suggest Daytona near the Pier as the boardwalk is there it’s a nice spot for having a little fun but the amusement parks were taken out due to massive safety concerns (a coaster crashed into the ground) It’s a little less fun but still fun.

Luna Park and Deno's amusement parks. Nathan's famous for the Hot Dogs Of course the Beach which is OK. Big Problem in my opinion is SEVERE WEATHER.

One con of the Statue of Liberty is that it is not air conditioned and it is sweltering inside the stairwell in the summer. Also, since the stairwell is quite narrow you might find yourself behind someone who is moving slow and has a huge butt. That butt will be in your face for your entire time and it could be half an hour or more in the summer... Otherwise, it is an absolute awesome experience.

As a BTTF fan i honestly thought the show was pretty garbage. THe musical numbers were not particularly memorable or even appreciated, they just heavily slowed down the pace of the show. The effects of the Delorean, now that's a different story. .. Amazing! Really well done, as was all the standard acting, non musical numbers. We also saw Harry Potter and that blew this out of the water... Fantastic. We did 19/20 things on your list on our trip... A very busy 10 days... I wasn't too impressed with the street vendor food and it felt really really over priced. I guess they spot a tourist easily :P I watched nealry all your stuff before we visited and i gotta say... great work... We stayed in NJ toooo :P NJ > NY.

It should be noted that the intrepid is free if you are current or former military (and they do check IDs) I thought BTTF musical was fine. Beat for beat same as the movie (which may be a pro OR con for people) The DeLorean and Doc Brown were the best parts. Jelani Remy has the best song (also that one customer, Billy Hipkins, you've interviewed a couple times works for the show as Roger Bart and Casey Likes' dresser)

Lived there--too much for me after 5 years. People don't realize that walking on sidewalks is just like any city--drugstores, pizza joints (fold your pie), and miles of ugly, banal building facades. When the city looks neat on TV or whatever, it's usually aerials--which you really never see just walking around. Best way to visit? Do what natives do: find a favorite hood, adopt your fave coffee shop, settle in, and people-watch. Central Park is stunning (and free) and there always little pockets not mobbed in the summer. Avoid at all costs the Biblical-sized crowded areas; they'll ruin your trip, especially if you have introverts in your family. Enjoy and bon voyage!!!

That’s not a replica of the test shuttle enterprise, it IS the test shuttle enterprise

@@HereBeBarr It's not a replica, it is the shuttle. However Enterprise was the prototype test shuttle so it never went into space.

Back To The Future was fun. Minor movie plot elements were altered to adapt it for the stage as well as make it more relevant and/or politically correct. IMHO the highlight was the actor who played George McFly He was worth price of admit 🙌

Disagree about Intrepid. Sorry I’d put it before any lookout or bridge. And it is unique because 1: It has a space shuttle. 2: it has a submarine 3: it has a Concorde. Sorry but the High Line - every city has a park!!

I was in NYC for the first time this March. And I have to agree with you. The 9/11 Monument and Museum is absolutely must see. I´m from the Czech Republic, so not near to the USA. I thought that, the sight is not gonna effect me too much. Boy, I was sooooo wrong. I cried a few times in the museum and it´s a emotional roller coster. If is the museum too much expensive for you or you not gonna go there any time soon, please check out the short film Boatlift. It´s a short film about Manhattan evacuation after the attacks.
