Hi I’m Marla. That’s a picture of me. I just moved to the city this year from New Jersey. I have been trying to find all of hot spots in NYC and now I am going to share some of my discoveries with you! I live right off of 5th avenue in downtown Manhattan, and I tried to keep my “places to visit” within walking distance. In fact, most of the listings are things I see on a day to day basis. If you visit all of these places you will truly get to experience what my neighborhood is all about. While my favorite places are parks, there is nothing like observing the people of NYC on the streets of NYC. The city has gorgeous views, and I wanted to share with you one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy your time in NYC!
