I was there back in August 1957 just before my senior year of college. But I saw little because I was in meetings all day about student government. I did see Grand Central Station and the airport--not sure which one.<br /><br />But your postings have whetted my appetite for adventure. And now I'd so love to visit New York City and see Central Park and other wonderful places and eat at someplace like Financier. Thank you for sharing your city with us. I've started to plan to visit!
