Traveling on a Budget to the City that Never Sleeps

What better way to start a summer weekend in the city that never sleeps?

But, even a three-day trip to New York can be expensive. The best restaurants can easily absorb the budget for a complete holiday, and tickets to museums, theaters and attractions, typically cost between 20 and 100 dollars each.

Well, it is recommended to stay in the business district rather than the tourist center of Times Square. The luxury hotels near Wall Street, as the Millenium Hilton, are emptied on weekends when business travelers return home. And they remain near the most interesting areas to shop and eat, not to mention some of the best tourist attractions of the city as the Brooklyn Bridge and the Statue of Liberty.

There is also a little known TKTS Discount Booth near the South Street Seaport, which sells tickets for Broadway musicals and Off Broadway with up to 50% discount.

In the first decade of the century, showed examples of Frank Gehry, Norman Foster, Renzo Piano, Christian de Portzamparc, the third of residential buildings by Richard Meier on the West Side Highway, Jean Nouvel and Herzog & de Meuron in Soho and Noho and as a host of smaller-scale interventions, especially indoors.

Morimoto Restaurant is an example, shows the creative master Tadao Ando. When visiting the city do not cease to go to the bathroom and see one that does ‘almost’ everything.

For New Yorkers, a recurring topic of conversation is their neighborhood, how many blocks to the Subway, the park, the river, to the supermarket, coffee, to the library.The neighborhoods are distinguished historically by the current of his people. Curators at the Upper East, Upper West liberals, the Bohemians in the East Village … this changes as some industrial areas become neighborhoods and environments revived.

Tribeca and the Financial District at the southern tip of Manhattan, live a revitalization, as a result of the attacks on the World Trade Center, have incentives for housing.
