    We enjoyed the visit. the Intrepid itself, the Concorde then the submarine... what a sight for my young boy. Glad we booked a slot early as it gets very busy quickly.

    Here for a dance show, we headed all the way upstairs and admired the wonderful pictures of famous jazz musicians and singers. The space we were in for the performance was absolutely stunning ( Rose theater) ; the staff was helpful and professional. The lower floors in this building are home to a beautiful mall, restaurants and cafes. Great place to spend time and grab dinner and a show.

    It’s NY’s theater district. How could anyone possibly think low rating? According to the internet, 11 of the theaters were built in the beginning of the 20th century. I found a very nice theater gift shop on 44th Street that I thought would have enough business to expand. Besides the typical t-shirt, sweatshirt stuff, a theater fan can also find things like sheet music books for all the musicals on Broadway and 42nd Street. I highly recommend stopping by Theater Circle Gift Shop.

    What a great theatre!!!! Went to see Moulin Rouge....with guest star Boy George. The show was fantastic set in this amazing theatre. Seats were pretty comfy, not much leg room, but then again I have long legs. At intermission I walked up to the balcony and have to say the view from up there was spectacular...you could see the entire stage. The crew at the theatre did a great job getting everyone in and out...and help finding seats.

    I've long wanted to visit Birdland and staying at the Intercontinental Hotel across the street, a smile crept across my face when I noted we were so close.

    We made a reservation online and arrived around 30 minutes prior to our showtime. We were shown to a great table on the rail, we ordered drinks and an appetizer, and settled in for exactly what we came for. The music, ambiance, service, and food and drink were all just right.

    We will definitely add a visit to Birdland to our future visits to New York...

    Went there for the NY auto show and it was very good. We were a bit disappointed that the restaurants on the lowest level were closed. The three food choices on the 3rd level were burgers, pizza or chicken fingers. There is also Starbucks and concession stands with snacks. Bathrooms are clean. I think there should be another
    coffee spot since not everyone can drink Starbucks.

    My friend and I went to see "A Sign of the Times" while in NYC. Wonderful show, great actors. We prefer off-Broadway as the shows are excellent and less pricey (so you can see more of them!). This theatre has 5+ stages and there is always something going on. I like that you can take food and drink into the theater. The staff were very helpful and gracious. We enjoyed our visit and recommend this theater.

    The TIme Warner Center is on the edge of Columbus Circle and it is easy to spot. There are a number of fancy shops here and if you have deep pockets you could easily spend a fortune in some of the stores.

    It's a nice area and it's nice to have a browse even if you can't afford to spend.

    Located on in 5th floor of the Time Warner building with beautiful views of Columbus Circle and the Central Park tree line. Enter the building, go to the Boss store, and the elevator up is across in the open space where you will see a ticket window. Arrive 30 min to an hour early if you want to pick exactly where you want to sit. There is a $21 food and beverage min per person . They add 20 percent gratuity to the check.

    Brought my family to see Little Shop of Horrors at The Westside. Great little theatre, helpful, friendly staff. The show was fantastic! Audience was really great -- nice thing about seeing theatre in NYC Is maybe that you get audiences who really appreciate and recognize good work. Would happily see this show again and I am not a lover of live theatre. Really fantastic performances, set and costume design and puppetry work. Anyway, Westside was a really pleasant little theatre. It is small, so during intermission the lounge area is a bit claustrophobic and the wait for the toilet is pretty long. Not deal breakers just something to be aware of, especially when it is so hot outside. Westside's A/C seemed to be working good, which was a major plus. Westside is off-Broadway, which is a big plus in my book, because it makes getting a post-show Uber much easier.

    What an incredible show! The actors were outstanding, think my husband and I had more fun than my 3 and 6 year old- it was a spectacular opportunity to transport ourselves into “another land” for an adventure - so professional, well put together, with an excellent professional team.

    Spending a week in New York and saw this place on MacMasters video on YouTube. Having paid $12 a pint yesterday I though I would give it a try - and yes - draught beers from $3 a pint and Premium draught beers from $6
    Great little place - off the beaten track a bit but only a 10 minute walk west from Times Square.

    Check-in is super easy and quick. This event is really only fun if you have a panel or 2 to attend or have a really hardcore and diverse interest in multiple media franchises. Otherwise you’ll end up like me last year and end up just walking around doing nothing and leave unfulfilled and feel like you wasted your money. This year I went on Thursday and there was plenty to do. Could be because covid restrictions are mostly gone but… yeah it’s great. People are super nice, too

    Hearst Tower is a very interesting and iconic building that is located close to the south end of Central Park. Very striking design.
