Default OT: Heading to NYC this weekend....

Heading up to visit the R-Speed kr3w and do a little car work.

I will have Sunday free and want to do some sight seeing in the city.
Does anyone have any suggestions for good, inexpensive fun and spots for good photos?

Last time I was 'in city' I got a some photos and visited a comedy club.

Picture with my childhood friends in front of the WTC a few months before the 11th.

I would like to visit the WTC site again... can that be done? Is it off limts?

Any thoughts on the parking matter?

I'll be in Purto Rico this w/e but definetly check out Times Square along w/ the Thether District, see if you can get some last minute tics to The Lion King, best Broadway play I've seen thus far.
Checkout Central Park and walk along Central Park West up to where the Museum of Natural history is and the Hayden Planetrium. Walk cross park to 5th Ave and check out the MET, don't go in tho unless u like stearing at famous art works for a long time. Walk toward downtown, checkout FAO Swartz.

Get to Grand Central Station (5th and 42nd) and checkout that building. Walk past The Liebrary and Brayant Park, get to The Empire State Building and go to the top.
Take a subway downtown and see the old WTC site (really not much there, looks like a construction zone) and see the City Hall. Walk over to Wall Street, see the Stock Exchange. Go back to midtown.

There's cheap places to eat everywhere you go.

Have fun, email me if you need futher details.

good places to go for good pictures are always by the water. East river under the Brooklyn Bridge{Manhatten side} around dusk is great.

Plans are in motion now, I posted within the email group.

I may or may not be able to hang alot....I have plans to see Aida on Sat. night and more importantly, my Dad is in the hospital, if his condition improves I can hang. I am home now, waiting for visiting hours to start to head over there.

Yea, last time in New York, I stayed in times square for $80 a night at the marriot, thanks to hotels.com. THeres a booth called TCKS, they sell tickets to all the shows and stuff for pretty cheap when it comes close to show time. I saw rent for $30... You can take a ferry to see the statue of liberty, and theres the WTC site you can see.

u will need a min. of 300 bucks per person to have a half way decent time there. and that does not include drinks.

it would be better going to a club and buying drinks for girls and taking them to a booth in the corner.

i was very unimpressed with the $$$/pleasure ratio at scores

u need to check out lil italy too. eat dinner one night there and check out all the beautiful women walking around.
