Empire State Building at night is the way to go.
Ground Zero
Statue of Liberty
Little Italy
China Town
I didn't think I would enjoy visiting NY City but I am glad I went and will go back again. Its different way of living but overall the people where nice and I had no issues.
Empire is awesome . . . top of the rock is too
ground zero memorial tour. Its awesome to see but candidly its much more cleaned up then in the past. Take a picture next to the new building . . . . . your grand kids will want to keep pictures of you when it was under construction.

...I'll PM you my cell # and I can come up and meet you for lunch at noon...If you want. You can meet a native New Yawker who is moving to Texas. I already have land in Harper and go down every year.
Go see the Irish Hunger Memorial in Battery Park. Wall Street. The Police museum. All are in Lower Manhattans financial district. Go to Statue of Liberty. Ride the Staten Island Ferry(its free). Best pizza in lower manhattan is Big Al's on Thames st. between broadway and trinity.
I hate NYC because I am here all the time. There are some cool things to do. But If you get the need to hunt...we have to drive about 40 miles and I can get ya to my home and we can do some of there here in the burbs
TBH has amazed me again. {getting harder to do} We just have folks everywhere. Nice jesture sir...........

Beretta Gallery. Beretta's store in NYC (I'm not kidding)
718 Madison Avenue
New York, NY 10065, U.S.A.
Tel. + 1 212 319-3235
Saint Patrick's Cathedral- Catholic or Protestant, it doesn't matter. An awe-inspiring tribute to our Lord. Right across the street from Rockefeller Center where the NYC Christmas tree and the ice skating is in the winter (maybe it's still winter there?)
For the best northern Italian food, Manducati's across the 59th Street (Queensboro) bridge. It's like something from the Sopranos but the food is incredible. Local congressman and sports figures eat there.
Manducatis is an old school Italian restaurant that has been family owned since its founding on Christmas Day in 1977 by Vincenzo and Ida Cerbone.

Take a ferry to jersey and walk to Carlos Bakery (cake boss). It's freakin delicious and you might get to meet a few of the guys.
Grand central station.
Statue of Liberty
Seinfeld restaurant
History museum
Walk around time square until you hear someone yelling letterman tickets. Act outrages and upbeat. They will give you free front row passes.
Johns pizza.
Whatever you do, do not go to china town. If you do find yourself in china town, do not let the Muslim shop owner hear you tell a customer where they can get the "I heart NYC" sweater cheaper. If all these things do in fact happen, they will follow you around china town until you leave china town yelling "don't sell to this guy, he is a stupid guy".
