Start the day at Times Square, then hang out at Bryant Park. In the afternoon, either explore Central Park, or head up Rockefeller Plaza and grab a drink at Bar SixtyFive for sweeping views over the whole city.
Day 2
Start in SoHo and the West Village, then head down to the Financial District. Visit the 9/11 Memorial & Museum if desired. End the day crossing the Brooklyn Bridge at sunset — pro tip: rent Citi Bikes and ride across the bike path instead of walking with the crowds. Also take a NYC Ferry ride on the East River for great skyline views.
