If you only had 2 days in NYC...

My favorite NYC memory is breaking in to the Spaceship Observatory Towers in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, climbing the old deteriorating staircases, and then jumping off them with a parachute.

 

That's where MiB parked the crashed spacecraft back in the 60's, no?

 

 

Yep, it was in one of the scenes in MIB.

After reading this, I need to make the trip again just for the Deli's.

Thanks to everyone who responded. You've given us some great ideas and insight to the city. The comfortable shoe advice is a lifesaver. I think we now have a good deli, Italian restaurant and museum choice (the MOMA was already on my radar). We will do the 9/11 memorial as well. I was thinking the Rainbow Room for Sunday brunch but the Boathouse sounds great too - perhaps easier to get a reservation?

 

Harlem will have to wait till next trip - but I'm intrigued that so many of you suggested a visit. CBer's are a smart and cultured group!

 

Thanks again all!

Please consider Century 21, in Lower Manhattan and close to the World Trade Center site, for ridiculously good deals on designer fashions.
