Madison Square Garden And Yankee Stadium...

The Intrepid is fine, but if you think this will be a rare trip to NYC, there are a great many other attractions that cannot be duplicated elsewhere. If you're into history, check out the Big Onion tours. We're going on one this weekend (Hamilton tickets for Friday!), a walking tour of Revolutionary War New York.

 

You could observe the time-honored SJ tradition of buying me and Moddy a beer when you're in midtown.

 

Alright you two. Next time I am in town, both of you are on.

Visiting Yankee Stadium? Bah, just look at it from Google Earth and Street View.

 

Agree with those saying go to the Interpid. There, Empire State Building, 9/11 museum. New Yankee Stadium sucks compared to the old one. Arthur Ave is great, but nothing really there other than restaurants and delis.

 

Is the new World Trade totally completed? Does it have an observation deck?

 

Not sure but the memorial and museum have been open.

 

Chiming in.

Family trip to NYC last weekend of Sep. Already bought the tickets, bought the three day NYC pass.

Doing one day downtown/Wall Street/Chinatown/LI, one day Midtown, one day Central Park and up. I haven't been there since 2000. Teenage kids are super excited.

Welcome any food recs for pizza and, especially, Greek food or Indian food.

If you had one or two of the major museums to go to, what would it be? Fortunate in that we have curious kids who are into art.

Thanks!

 

If you have to pick one probably Museum of Natural History since it's on Centr Park West you can go there and then Cent Park.

 

Take a walk along the High Line and visit the new Whitney Museum. If you're looking for a dive bar, Rudy's (9th Ave., between 44th and 45th) is always a good bet.

 

Yankee Stadium will be quiet in November.

Come to think of it, it'll be quiet in October too.

 

Was in Rudy's for a beer and a hot dog last month......felt like home.....
