Hey Mikey - long time no see.
I'm in Jersey not New York but I do spend a lot of time in there. Try to do some of the tourist typical things just so you can say you went to - say - The Empire State Building. (I went to the CN tower in Toronto lol) You must see Broadway - try to catch a show while you're here. Go to the TKTS booth on 42nd and Broadway and pick up cheap tickets for the same day - sometimes very good seats are available. Take the Circle Line cruise around Manhattan - you can see so much from the water that you don't even know is there. Go to the Village and check out the nightlife - there is something there to appeal to everyone (or to offend everyone lol). If you want a list of restaurants - not too expensive - but great New York food - send me a pm and I'll give you a list.
