Seademon 0 Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 You'll have an amazing time! One of the best places I've been to - The shoppings brilliant - not too sure if Macy's or Bllomingdales are stocking VW parts yet Link to post Share on other sites

sefton 0 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Dont think I saw any VW when I was there...just big dintted and badly resprayed crap american barges!could make a killing if you opened a good body repair shop!For a different night out try Grennich (sp)? gritty part of town with loads of live band bars etc...really different from all the busy built up part of town!wierdest thing...strangers talk to each other in lifts! (elevators) lolPost some pics when your back!Craig. Link to post Share on other sites
Seademon 0 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Ha yeah strangers do talk to you and it feels odd! Like Sefton says Greenwich is a good night out, loads of bars with live music - good music too. Bars are open late and they are all non-smoking so you dont get home and stink the next morning!You'll never starve their either!! If you ask for something large thats exactly what you'll get!

cliveyp 0 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Have a great time mate, sure you'll love it. We had to cancel our trip out there as it was only about a week or so after 9/11. We ended up in Vegas instead, which is definately a fantastic place to visit! Link to post Share on other sites

Flog 1 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 If memory serves me correctly, there's a bar on east on 45th and 6th, called nation , that serves draught free up until 6pm and the bar staff are wannabee models. Link to post Share on other sites
