The Greater New York area is full of attractions for all ages. New York City – the so-called Big Apple, America’s largest city and home of the Statue of Liberty National Monument – reigns as capital of the world, an economic powerhouse with the most diverse selection of entertainment, museums and restaurants imaginable. Destruction of the World Trade Center has altered New York City’s skyline, but not its indestructible spirit, and visitors from everywhere continue flocking to the “city that never sleeps" -- even when it’s dark. In synch with New York City accommodations, fitting any budget and taste, New York City also boasts a restaurant to fit every palate and pocketbook, from mom and pop delis and pasta places to five-star bastions of exclusivity. Manhattan and Staten Island are islands; Queens and Brooklyn are on the western tip of Long Island. So, of New York City’s five boroughs, only the Bronx is part of the mainland. Yet, there is an island that‘s part of the Bronx and yet feels like a New England fishing village: City Island, a marine-related community with fishing, boating, restaurants and snack bars. For the record, Manhattan has no Main Street, although there is a Main Street in each of the other boroughs and on Roosevelt Island. Why is New York City called the Big Apple? In the 1920s, John Fitzgerald, a sportswriter for the Morning Telegraph overheard stable hands in New Orleans refer to NYC's racetracks as "the Big Apple" so he named his column "Around the Big Apple." A decade later, jazz musicians adopted (and adapted) the term in reference to New York City, especially Harlem, as the world’s jazz capital. As lore goes, there are many apples on the tree of success, but when you pick New York City, you pick the Big Apple.

Brooklyn Children’s Museum

Open since 1899, Brooklyn Children’s Museum is the world’s first for youngsters, with nearly 27,000 cultural objects and natural history specimens. The Museum's first home was in Adams Building, a Victorian mansion in Brooklyn’s Bedford Park, in 1923 renamed Brower Park. Parlor rooms and halls held exhibits, with workshops and a library upstairs. Youngsters were encouraged to participate, not just look. Driving force Anna Billings Gallup becoming curator in 1904, and invented ways for children to use the Museum. During the 1930s Depression, federal WPA workers made improvements, while the Museum expanded its take-home program, now called the Portable Collections. After WWII, the BCM helped children prepare for the "space age." By 1967, the expanded BCM’s Adams and Smith mansions were deemed beyond repair. Temporary space, called “The Muse,” in a renovated pool hall and auto showroom opened in 1968, leading to experiments with dance and music classes. In 1977, BCM's Brower Park building opened on the Smith mansion site with other building structures recycled into the architecture. Visitors enter through a trolley kiosk from the 1900's. A "People Tube" -- a huge sewer pipe -- connects four exhibit floors, and a corn oil tank serves as "The Tank" -- an amphitheater.

Chelsea Piers

Saved from being paved over by a failed highway project, historic Chelsea Piers has emerged into a $120 million privately financed 30-plus acre waterfront sports-entertainment complex housing a golf driving range, ice- and roller-skating, bowling, and a health club. With the Statue of Liberty National Monument as part of the panorama, four once-neglected piers – 59, 60, 61, and 62 – also have shops and restaurants. Luxury liners of yesteryear once departed from the Piers amid hoopla and champagne. In 1910, the Chelsea Piers debuted with speeches noting eight-years of construction after three decades of talk. In 1907, even before the Piers were done, the Lusitania and Mauretania docked there. For the next 50 years, Chelsea Piers was the city's premier passenger ship terminal, an embarkation point for WWI and WWII soldiers, and finally, a cargo terminal. Obsolescence struck with jets and container ships requiring facilities Manhattan could never provide. Redevelopment of the four surviving Chelsea Piers brings to mind the days when the famed White Star and Cunard lines, with as many as 20 stacks in view, prepared to sail. As the high and mighty disembarked, so did immigrants from steerage below, by 1910 arriving daily by the thousands. Most ships came first to Chelsea Piers, before transferring to ferries bound for Ellis Island and freedom.
