Things to check out in NYC!

I seem to recall the International Center for Photography was easy to get to and well worth the admission

Do go to the ICP. There's an incredible exhibit of Lewis Hine photography there at the moment, and get the catalog while you're there - beautifully printed. Also there's a brilliantly staged Macbeth by the Lincoln Center Theater at the Vivian Beaumont; well worth seeing.

Another gallery worth a visit is Hous Projects, on Howard Street between Broadway and Lafayette, one block north of Canal. They're a block and a bit from the Canal Street subway stop for the N & R lines.

This is my favorite tourist tip video. Enjoy.

Seriously, watch out for bikes if you walk over de Brooklyn bridge. There is construction that narrows de walkway.

Boom. Done.

Try to get to the Howard Greenburg Gallery on 57th st. They always have a great show up. Not sure about their hours during the holiday season though.

I wish I could buy some books but I'm planning on walking a lot so maybe not until the last day.
Might hit MoMA again, will go check the Top of the Rock again but other than that, will be mainly walking.

Nothing wrong with walking in NYC. It's the best way to see anything and everything.

I forgot to say thank you to everyone who posted.. We had a great time, and I got time to check out almost everything i wanted..

b&H was crazy!

Also due to jetlag, I woke up around 6-7am for the first three days. My gf didn´t so I went walking around soho/nolita/chinatown for a couple of hours every morning.

most of the shots in this set was taking during those walks.
