POSTED BY
Evelyn Kanter

Tune in to WOR Tonight on Tuesday, Dec. 17th, as I chat with Joe Concha about the things that make NYC great at any time of year, especially the holidays.

on 710AM and iHeartRadio app

 

100 Things to Do in New York City Before You Die, is a great guide to discovering the quirky treasures of the NYC, or re-discovering some of the most famous spots in the world.

Autographed copies are available from NYC on the Cheap, where Editor Evelyn Kanter has been giving you daily news and tips on the best of New York City for more than six years.

100 Things to Do in New York City Before You Die is the ideal book whether you are a first-time visitor, repeat visitor, new resident or lifetime resident.

It’s the all new Second Edition of the book published originally four years ago, in 2015.

The toughest part of writing 100 Things to Do in New York City Before You Die was limiting it to just 100 things. 

Because we all know that NYC is limitless for those who enjoy great food from around the world, great culture including theater and museums, great history, the great outdoors including parks and gardens, and great shopping that ranges from top designers to top designer fashions at steep discounts.

100 Things to Do in NYC Before You Die is available online, including as a Kindle version, and in bookstores including Barnes & Noble.

100 Things to Do in NYC Before You Die

100 Things to Do in NYC Before You Die features:

Great food includes:

A restaurant in Staten Island where all the chefs are grandmothers, and the annual NYC Restaurant Week, , when some 400 top NYC restaurants offer prix fixe three-course meals for $26 at lunch and $42 at dinner, and more.

Great culture includes:

World-class museums from the Met and the Cloisters to the stories of immigrants who helped make NYC great, at the Tenement Museum, the Museum of Chinese in America, and, of course, at Ellis Island.  And dancing under the stars at the annual Midsummer Night Swing in Lincoln Center.

Great history includes:

means the spot where George Washington took the oath of office as first US president, on Wall Street, and all the spots where Alexander Hamilton lived and worked before he became a Broadway musical star.

Great outdoors includes:

Kayaking on the Hudson and East rivers for free, and long guided walks with a group that focuses on NYC shorelines, as well as the annual NYC Marathon.

Great shopping includes:

Designer discount stores, secondhand and consignment shops and more.

100 Things to Do in New York City Before You Die is full of things not published here on NYC on the Cheap, including one-day itineraries by subject, such as families or history lovers, and seasonally, by summer, fall, winter and spring.
