I went to New York City for 4 days last week for the first time. I took over 700 pictures during my stay and I obviously won't be showing them all, but I hope the ones I do show give an idea of what the city is like.
I apologize if some photos are of poor quality or overexposed. The weather wasn't great, but I made the most of it.
The plane is awaiting.
The flight from Toronto's Pearson Airport to LaGuardia.
The first look at the city.
The view from the Hilton NY.
The first steps into Central Park, which is over twice the size of Monaco.
The famous Park Avenue.
One of my favourite skyscrapers in Manhattan, the Citigroup Building.
Probably my favourite building in the world, the Chrysler Building.
The first glance at the Empire State Building.
The view...
Macy's, which has about the same amount of square footage as the Empire State Building.
Entering Times Square.
Part of Broadway has been closed off to vehicles, for the purpose of a pedestrian mall.

The Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle.
You can find some amazing architecture and some very well preserved buildings in the Soho and Greenwich Village neighbourhoods.
Sorry for the bluriness (I was on a bus). The Woolworth building is the tall skyscraper to the centre right. It was once the tallest building in the world.
Lower Manhattan as seen from Brooklyn.
Back to Times Square.
The United Nations the next day, which consisted of pouring rain and clouds.
Trump International Hotel and Tower, the tallest residential building in the western hemisphere.

On Friday, I headed over to the Statue of Liberty. This is the ride to Lower Manhattan.
