Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

Central area in NYC that has many shops, restaurants, office buildings and flashing billboards around it.
Amazing place to visit and so different from everything I am used to, great to see in the day as well as at night, with lots of street performers to make the experience even more enjoyable!

Located on the outskirts of the West Village, this area is becoming more upscale and gentrified.
In NYC, nothing stands still. Up until the 1970s, the main industry in the Meatpacking District was slaughtering animals . Now its a mega trendy neighbourhood, full of top-end boutiques and fancy bars. The Whitney American art museum is a notable addition to the area. A fun way to get to the Meatpacking District is to take the High Line linear park, an old elevated railway line. The Meatpacking District is in the far west of Manhattan. It runs from the Hudson River east to Hudson Street, and West 14th St south to Gansevoort Street.

High-rent neighborhood of New York City located along one side of Central Park, which is predominately residential with town homes and apartment buildings along with pricey shops, restaurants, and architectural gems such as the Guggenheim Museum and the Cooper-Hewitt.
The Upper East Side contains many of New York City's most desirable residences. The leafy streets are not crowded and it contains some of the world's best high-end shopping. The Upper East Side contains Museum Mile, home to institutions such as the Guggenheim and the Met. The Upper East Side is the home of New York's elite. The neighbourhood is bounded by 96th St in the North, and 59th St in the South; with the East River on one side and by Central Park and 5th Avenue in the West

SoHo (an acronym for South of Houston Street) So you can grab coffee and a pastry from one of the many Instagrammable cafes and eateries .Walk back in time, along the cobblestone streets. The city’s most fashionable neighborhood has no shortage of trendy spots for shopping and dining, but careful explorers will find Soho’s true charm in the cobblestone streets, cast-iron architecture, and sweeping lofts and galleries. A creative vibe established by the neighborhood’s resident artists and the pulse of downtown NYC at your fingertips. A NYC MUST !!!!!!!!

Like a small town within Manhattan, the Village has narrow tree-lined streets and brick townhouses.
A trip to NYC is not complete without visiting Greenwich Village. So much to see, depending upon the weather, of course. Great cafes and unusual little stores, Christopher St, “Alphabet City” to the East, NYU’s campus buildings, Washington Square Park and the grand archway, outstanding comedy clubs, great restaurants, nice boutiques, historic buildings, delightful brownstones, superb falafel, and great people watching! Just take the subway to Christopher St and start zigzag-wandering east... so much to see! Enjoy!

Trendy area with cafes, restaurants and fashionable shops.
Our son, who works on Wall Street, lives on the Upper West Side. It's a family-friendly neighborhood. It's said that when you have children, you leave Manhattan Island for the suburbs, but the Upper West Side is a good option for families. Apart from Central Park West, there are a host of community facilities, including shops and museums. Many well-known people have lived on the Upper West Side, including the late Beatle John Lennon. We walked everywhere and never felt threatened.

This section of Manhattan once inhabited by Jewish immigrants has undergone a rebirth in recent years.
Manhattan's Lower East Side has traditionally been populated by poor immigants. In the 2000s the Lower East Side began a process of rapid gentrification. Now it is best known for its nightlife eating, drinking, dancing and live music. The Lower East Side's immigrant history can be seen in the Tenement Museum. Delancey Street and Hester Street are still the geographic heart of the Lower East Side, though most Jewish people have moved elsewhere..

Seaside area of New York.
TIP: Clear weather can be key to having a beautiful experience. With social distancing rules and staying indoors so much in 2020 it was a real treat to have an instant "Vacation" day with this scenic ferry ride. We left from pier 11 at the East River. --just below the Wall Street intersection. The fare is so affordable at $2.75 per adult. The waterway was beautiful ....seeing the tip of Manhattan, passing Governor's Island, seeing the NY skyline the Statue of Liberty off to our side, passing various parts of Brooklyn, going under the Verrazzano- Narrow's Bridge, passing by the amusements at Coney Island. Then one later we pulled n to the dock at Rockaway. Straight ahead from the Ferry Terminal was the beautiful beach (restrooms are along the walkway there). If we had chosen to walk too our right of the Ferry dock there would be some shops to see in a commercial section. Apparently there are also little jitney-shuttles that can take you to other parts of the beach or town. We simply headed for the beach itself. Fist we sat on the benches just enjoying the sea views. Next we moved down to the beach itself to watch some of our friends swim. It was a beautiful day and it really felt like a vacation (so close to Manhattan but it felt so far).
