I recently visited NYC over Christmas week. The City was beautiful after the snowfall. Central Park was fantastic. The windows at Lord and Taylor were beautiful. These windows have been a tradition for decades. I visited The Bronx and stopped at Yankee Stadium. It's sad to see the demolishing of the Old Stadium. My first game up there was a double-header against the White Sox. I believe on June 28, 1967. The Yanks won both games.

We went down to Little 12th Street off Ninth Avenue in Chelsea for dinner. The steak house was in an old building and was quite trendy.The financial district and Foley Square were great to walk around. We walked the Brooklyn Bridge and walked from Borough Hall down to the Long Island Rail Road on Flatbush and Atlantic Avenues. My pop use to walk that trek over fifty years ago.

Trump Tower, Tiffany's, Trinity Church and Macy's, Little Italy and Katz's and Orchard St. on the Lower East Side were other great points of interest.
