Don't know that we'll be doing much shopping, we will go broke! More sightseeing to try and see all the main places. I've got Ground Zero, Statue of Liberty, Times Square, Brooklyn, Yankee Stadium, Chinatown, Little Italy, and Empire State Building on the list so far.

Again just my I have been to NYC almost a dozen times, we try to go once a year, and each time we discover new things. If you do go, pick me up a fake Rolex in Battery Park, seriously.

The only pizza place not already mentioned (Moses really covered two great ones) is Patsy's in Harlem (the original Patsy's), I think the quality has gone down in recent years, but it's still great coal oven pizza. It's kind of out of the way though, unless you're up that way for some reason.

How about Rockefeller Center? Museums (The Met, MoMA, Guggenheim, Natural History)? Wall St.? Chelsea Market (food galore)? Central Park? Etc, tons of other stuff to do!

Seriously? Does it have to be from Battery Park? The ones on 5th Avenue near my job are just as fake....how much do you want to spend?

Seriously. Even if you don't shop. Go to FAO Schwarz! Easy walking distance from Central Park (at least the side I stayed on - The Plaza Hotel)

Remember the Statue of Liberty is in JERSEY!

So is the home of some of the best pizza in the world! And not to mention we don't have a 75% Tabacco Tax

Have fun Brother. If I can make it up one nite we'll meet up in the city.
