My last trip to NYC was super fun and super fast. I was basically trying to hit all the main sites so that my best pal could see them for the first time. Things we didn’t get to do: The Met, Museum of Natural History, and Ellis Island. I think a really cool museum that I haven’t been to yet would be The Tenement Museum and The New York Historical Society. I’m thinking of having a museum day (but I might need more than one day)!
More ideas:
1) Explore The High Line
2) See an improv show at a place like The Magnet Theater or a spoken word poetry jam at Nuyorican Poets Cafe
3) Visit Chinatown and Little Italy
4) See a drag show in Hell’s Kitchen
5) Rent a bike and explore central park, including Belvedere Castle
