We're heading to NY this week. Any must see places and or restraunts. Leaving Wednesday back Monday. Staying in Brooklyn for a couple nights then moving to Times Square.

We're doing a broadway show on Saturday. Planning for 9/11 and Statue of Liberty Sunday. Summit one and history museum is on the list to try and work in.

TIA

Katz, some may consider it a tourist trap, but it's a must stop for me when in the city. The tenement museum is near and I really enjoyed the experience as well.

For the 9/11 Museum, do the early access guided tour. Allow a couple of hours after to wander the museum. After that, I'd
recommend the Ground Zero walking guided tour. I did both in September and they were outstanding but I didn't allow
enough time between them to see more of the museum.

Did NYC over a weekend a few weeks ago with my wife.
Stayed in jersey city, trains were easy.
Definitely do the 9/11 museum. After, hit up Kuu for food (20 John St, New York, NY 10038).
Do Katz's.
We also did the MOMA and a brief walk in central park.
Wild East Brewery in Brooklyn was good.
Brooklyn Bridge was crammed with more illegals illegally selling things (though that was prohibited) the with people crossing the bridge.

We lived on the upper east side for a few years. I would highly recommend Speakeasy Magick. Very fun but mildly pricey date night, https://speakeasymagick.com well worth it though!

Don't be afraid of the subway or buses. Citymapper is an excellent tool to navigate the city.

Best soup dumplings are at Joe's Shanghai on Bowery if you are in Chinatown. (Cash only)

Closer to Times Square I would recommend Joe's Home of Soup Dumplings off of 48th.

Go see the High Line and the Little Island. Both are really unique parks. Plenty of great restaurants and bars around for afterwards.

This was our NY trip and I had a blast. Didn't think I would like it as much as I did. We got in Thursday night. Hotel was in midtown. We Grabbed a slice of pizza and Walked to Bar 54-Rooftop drink with skyline view
