Hi there

I have been in NY numerous times and have done all the main touristy things.. I am due to go over on the 28th Dec for ten days for New Year's eve and a christening..

Can you give me any suggestions of cool, local things to do?

Thanks in advance...


Slán,

Ann

Chumblys in the West Village is classic. A local hangout. Since your last visit they opened the top of Rockefeller Center, The Top of the Rock, The views are stunning. Do you like Art?



141 Wooster between Houston and Prince is a place called the Earth Room. The oldest installation in the city in the heart of Soho. You gotta put your 'I can find it' radar on. It's a non descript building no sign. Well worth the adventure. Then ask the single protector of earth where Walters other gem can be found. It's right around the corner. It's really fun.

Hello, I'm also coming next week! We want to ice skate. Can you rent skates at Rockefella Center? Do you know how much it is to skate and how much to rent ice skates? Thank you. Do they have men's hockey skates?

I would concurr with KM.

Mell and I did the Rock on a clear beautiful Sunday Morning, and the views will leave you breathless, and are breathtaking, awesome, fantastic, brilliant, ...even the lift ride is awesome...
We were incredibly lucky because the weather was gorgeous, and we had an unrivalled views....and it wasn't busy either...but then I did drag Mell up first thing in the morning (I think that was the day she didn't have a hangover!!)

I'd recommend the Rock to any visitor, but buy your ticket in advance...save queuing up....!
