So not LI? I know a lot of places you should go. Awesome restuarants, cool sights and stuff like that. Are you thinking of going to zoos? The central park and bronx zoo are amazing.

 
Definitely check out central park, eat some good food, and check out a museum or something, there are many. Great clubs too in the Meat-packing district if your of age... OH and treat yourself to a typical NYC brunch with ulimited mimosas!

 
Thanks you guys

I am not of age but my older brother who is of age has went to some really cool HIDDEN speakeasies. I will check out Central Park!

If you end up in lower Manhattan, in SoHo (south of Houston)...

If you bring enough cash you can walk out with a real human skull. :D

You can get lost in here for days...

Medieval European architecture and artifacts hidden in the middle of Central Park...

The Cloisters

This was extremely helpful. I will try to fit these in my schedule. NHM (Natural History Museum) sounds good! :D

I already have enough human skulls as it is... Wait... nevermind :shifty:

If you're into museums check out the Brooklyn Museum. They have the larges collection of Egyptian artifacts on the east coast. Lots of great collections of other cultures as well including native American and the famous middle eastern pieces pictured below...

Good stuff!

 
Wow! These are incredible!

Are you from New York? you know so much about it
I lived there for a few years and part time for a few years before that. I've spent a lot of time there so I know some of the sweet spots.

I have an autographed poster of that second Alex Grey painting framed hanging next to my PC. And I got him to autograph my Tool - 10,000 Days CD featuring the other painting.

You would LOVE this place...

The site does it no justice. It's a really cool place to eat (all ages).

 
I need to thank all of you guys for giving me ideas and places to go to, esspecially you Precarious!!! Thanks for the links and everything. Almost all of them are on my schedule, as some of them are too far away!
