Thanks for telling me what to do in NYC

Post by kbit »

I'm going to staying in Manhattan for a week this coming March and I'm going to have a lot of free time during the days.
This is my first time going to NYC, so let me know of any cool shit you think I should check out.

Art stuff, music stuff, food stuff (casual or fancy), stuff stuff, etc.

Thanks for any suggestions :hello:

MOMA is a must-see. Guggenheim is worth the trip just for the architecture. 30th Street Guitars was my favorite shop on Manhattan, and I went to a bunch. Matt Umanov Guitars is pretty cool too.

Go to Greenwich Village, walk around Washington Square, check out the shops and cafes and bars....

Whenever I've found myself in Manhatten with time to kill, I've just wandered around the subways listening to buskers. There are some entertaining motherfuckers down there.

+1 on the MOMA if that's your bag.

Hang out with me and Fuzz_pi :lol:
If you like coffee, go to bluebird coffee on houston street and avenue B. by far the best coffee shop in the city. Ludlow guitars, which has an amazing selection of pedals, is only a few blocks away. Also a lot of cool clubs in that area.
Take the L to williamsburg, some cool thrift shops there. Got a handmade peacoat for 28 bucks. Oasis is a really good middle eastern place right outside thew bedford avenue station, and it's cheap as tits.
Murphy's cheese in the west village has mad good cheese just, just sayin :idk:
Going for a walk with 20 bucks in your pocket is my general idea of a good time. Find a good coffee place, just explore. Best places as a whole would be the villages, soho, tribeca, basically all the more liberal areas.

Is it murray's? I haven't been there in mad long, but murrays sounds more like it :lol:
That place is great, I could buy a pound of drunken goat and just be happy, if only for an hour or so.

There may be a cheese shop named Murphy's, but I don't know it. Murray's is the famous one. They've got great gobs o' cheese.

Cheese is my favorite. I shall definitely be going there.
MoMA is most likely going to happen.
I like the idea of wandering so I shall hit all those spots mentioned if I can.

& I'll hang out; always down to meet ILFers :hello:

Thank you everyone :thumb:
Keep 'em comin' if you got more.

Yeah, but that means you'd have to set foot on the Upper West Side.

Why?

Why, oh, why? And is that even the same Murray's? Maybe there's more than one guy named Murray?
