75 Things We Love About New York

       I’ve written several times about lists I’ve seen (from Delta Air Lines, Duane Reade Pharmacies, and others) about what to love about New York City.  I recently read yet another list, this time from Where magazine (which is available for cities around the world).  That list contains 75 things, and these are very different than the others, as the activities and sights are more obscure, but fun nonetheless.  I’ll share them with you over several posts.  Here’s a start:

1. Marching up Fifth Ave. with the Celebrate Israel Parade
2. Strolling along the elevated park called The High Line
3. Browsing original prints at the International Center of Photography
4. Dancing to the upbeat music in Broadway’s Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
5. Ogling Manhattan’s skyline from the Promenade at Brooklyn Bridge Park
6. Catching an independent flick at Film Forum
7. Being awed by Cirque du Soleil’s Zarkana
8. Booking a fuel-efficient luxury car with Mint Cars on Demand
9. Selecting sheet music at Colony Music
10. Crossing the Hudson River on a New York Water Taxi
11. Trying on a new pair of sneakers at New York Running Company
12. Marveling at the snakes and white tigers at the Bronx Zoo
13. Tasting ethnic cuisine on a Food on Foot Tour
14. Getting a manicure at Blush Nail Lounge
15. Taking in 360-degree views on the Top of the Rock observation deck.
