Default Going to New York! :)

In march I'm going to New York togheter with my friends and some other students from school. I think it's gonna be a h*ll of a trip! With visits to Ground Zero, the Liberty staty, a boattrip around Long Island and visits to a lot of diffrent companies.

So now to my question: What do I "have" to see and do when I'm in NY? Anything Bon Jovi related? Anything that is just a must see?

I appreciate all help

Ive been twice its an amazing place.

Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Central Park (second was in beginning of Feb and the lake had frozen and people were ice skating, went passsed the restaurant out of Ghost Busters!)

Never forget the view from the WTC fantastic, went to Ground Zero the second time just so horrible to see it and rembering what the WTC was like.

It was funny when my partner when into McDonalds abd asked for a doughnut they all fell about laughing cause they dont sell them it wasnt that funny.

I've heard that the Hard Rock has one of Jon's guitars but I've never actually seen it when I've been there.

The KTF video was filmed at different places in downtown Manhattan.
- A lot of it was filmed on the Brooklyn Bridge.
- The parts with Richie playing in the street were near the corner of Wall Street and Broad Street as you can see Federal Hall behind him.
- When you see Jon walking behind a chain link fence - I'm pretty sure that was filmed at Rivington Street and Suffolk Street on the Lower East Side.

A while ago I tried to figure out other locations based on signs and things but I didn't have much luck with that. lol
