Yup, I'm going to be in New York from the 13th for a few days on an Art trip with my school.
We're going to have some free time every day for shopping and that, and I was wondering, could anyone recommend any cool places to go and shop? Preferably atchally IN the city so its in easy reach of a lost British tourist and her chums.
So yeah - what does a city like the Big Apple have to offer a gal' like me?

Hmm what part of the city will you be in? Manhatten? Queens? Bronx? Brooklyn? Staten island? NY is a big city :p

BTW, NYC is not full of rape. Maybe the darker areas or like the Bronx but the heart of NYC is very nice.
I'm staying in some Hotel off Time Square.
From what I know I'm visiting Staten Island on the first day, then hitting the museams.
Think it's just around Manhatten-area. I really have no idea as to the Geography of New York.

Go to the QB :p
I lived near N.Y. a year ago, and I've been there a few times. Just think of it as your state, only on steroids. (Though I now live in Las Vegas, so to me, they are only light steroids...)
I have no 'state' as I am from Britain, therefore I'm at a loss.
I think at some point I'm venturing into Harlem to go jazz-clubbing, although I'm not sure about that.
I'm definatly going to the Village Vangard jazz club on the 15th though. 70th anniversary bash, woo!
I'm gunna get SO lost there. Also, so freezing. I dislike the snow most times!

Staten Island really is boring and crappy. My aunt lives there. I'm biased towards Queens if you go outside Mahatten, but that's just because I lived there for most of my life. xD
That would be the 51st state. Thanks, Tony!Quote:

These are sections of the city, but do not actually refer to specific locations. Find a tourist map and generally, they break NYC down into sections such as the ones above. Another good option is to do some research online and choose sites or places you'd like to visit and then either find directions or use the maps.
Enjoy your stay here! Sorry about the crummy weather.
Take care all.
*cries* I want to go there ;__;Quote:
