New York City By RV
Once you park the rig in Liberty Harbors safe and
convenient park you catch a ferry on weekdays or the
PATH train on weekends and within a half hour you
are in the city.

By dividing the city onto four walks you can make it a
whole lot less confusing.
The first walk starts on the Great White Way   once
you descend from the Empire State Building and
head north for a half-mile on Broadway through the
heart of the Theater District.  Times Square.
Check first with Liberty Harbor to reserve show
tickets. If not check the TX booth in Times Square.       
      
Music, dance, and theater rule this once gritty
intersection This slice of New York City nightlife
recently struggled through rebirth as a gleaming family
entertainment center nd the heart of the entertainment
district.

Not just Good Morning America broadcasting live
each morning while a sidewalk audience of cell
phone-junkies peers through picture windows, or
David Letterman romping through this neighborhood
torturing Rupert G. during his evening show from the
Ed Sullivan Theater, Times Square is the ESPN Zone
Sports Bar with big screen TV game coverage
throughout, even in the lavatories; it is the Broadway
City Arcade featuring not just for kids virtual reality,
and it is the gigantic windows at Toys-R-Us
welcoming kids with a ride on the indoor Ferris wheel.
 
Intrepid Museum

Rockefeller Center's 11-acre Art-Deco style
complex on 5th Avenue and 48th Street,
home of the Radio City Music Hall and the
Rockettes hosts one hour NBC guided tours
of the TV studios where the Today Show,
NBC Sports, Conan's Late Night, Dateline,
Nightly News, and Saturday Night Live
broadcast.
Three blocks north to West 53rd Street brings
you to the Museum of Modern Art's Renoir
Water Lilies and Van Goh Sunflowers.  
For dining try Oceana on East 54th Street
and Madison lunch: four-star, elegant.  
Four blocks south on Madison you will find
Saint Patrick's Cathedral, built in 1858, its
330-foot spires top the largest Gothic style
cathedral in the country.  
The Chrysler Building, New York's second
tallest, looms in art-Deco extravagance seven
blocks south on Park Avenue not far from the
United Nations Headquarters and its tours of
the complex so often seen in the news.       No
longer on US territory, your U. N. guides will
explain in many languages the work done at
the UN to improve the lives of people around
the world.
If you return to Broadway by cab at dusk you'll
see Times Square gleaming as brightly as
day and feel its New Years Eve excitement
again in the brilliance of multi-story ads and
blazing billboards.
RV to the 24 Hour City
RV to New York City
Park the RV at Liberty Harbor and  Take these Four
Walking Tours

Views of the city from the 86th floor of the
Empire State Building will show that you can
easily halve and quarter the Big Apple into four
simple day-space chunks during your RV
vacation.  

Look north to the mile of museums that cluster
along Central Park while below you shine the
lights of Broadway's Great White Way.  

To the south, Fifth Avenue touches the Flatiron
and Little Italy, and further south, the Riverwalk
beneath the Brooklyn Bridge leads to the
meeting of the East and Hudson Rivers at
Battery Park and the ferry for the Statue of
Liberty.   
Dining is a great
experienced in New York
City because of Italian,
Chinese and many other
ethnic neighborhoods.
RV in place and safe for the
evening, Why not try some New
York City Dining
Down on 7th you will find the landmark Carnegie
Deli noted for its Pastrami and Cheesecake.  Too
Plebeian, take Broadway to the Trump Tower on
the southwest corner of Central Park and end your
day at one of only six New York restaurants
consistently worthy of four stars and a place on a
special New York Times "extraordinary" list: Jean
Georges: French dining in an exquisite setting.

The next day's walking tour, the Museum Mile,
starts at 843-acre Central Park, designed in 1858
by Fredrick Law Olmstead and Calvert Vaux.  
Offering 58 miles of pedestrian, bike, and
rollerblade paths with nature centers, a pond with
Gondola rides, a wildlife center, a strawberry field
memento to John Lennon, a zoo, and a carousel
with 58 hand-carved horses, the park also offers
the Museum Mile: natural history, photography and
art museums that would take days to explore.  
The Metropolitan Museum of Art stands above all
the rest with its Egyptian, Greco-Roman, and
American Art and its extensive collection of
Impressionist and European paintings.  Unable to
see the entire two million pieces, take a romantic
afternoon interlude: wine and cheese on the Met's
rooftop patio with a splendid view of Central Park.
 
Also on the border of the park, the American
Museum of Natural History and its Hayden
Planetarium, the International Center of
Photography, The Jewish Museum, the Whitney
Museum of American Art, the Frick Museum, the
Cooper-Hewitt Museum,   and the Frank Lloyd
Wright designed Guggenheim Museum.
