Although I've been to New York City a handful of times, this post has definitely opened my eyes to some great things to check out! :D As a frugal traveler, I loved the "cheap" aspect too; NYC is definitely not one of those places known for cheap travel! I haven't taken the subway yet -- I've always been intimidated by its size and complexity and opted to walk. ;) I've walked from Lower Manhattan to the Upper West side several times.

Like I mentioned above, there is so much to to in NY. For me, I had the most fun in the nights. Wandering around Greenwich village checking out all the cool random bars. But the Empire State Building is a must do. Get the audio tour like I mentioned and aim to get up there just before sunset. You will see the skyline in the day and night and the audio tour gives you a good overview of the city plus will give you some new ideas of what to do next.
