The tenement museum!

in response to Kate

my boyfriend and I are going to NYC in early November! What should we do? (I've been multiple times and done the big tourist things. We're both giant art, theater, and design fans, enjoy nature, and love to eat)

New York, NY

Visit

You get to see how people lived in (small) NYC homes over different periods of time - it’s really a cool experience. And you will be in Lower East Side where you can tack on all sorts of gems!

Love this place! And you can grab breakfast/lunch latkes at Russ & Daughters on Orchard just after.
