Well, you can take the Times Square Shuttle (subway) to Grand Central (42nd and Park Ave) -- takes 5 minutes. Or you can walk up 42nd to Grand Central in about 15 minutes. The Empire State is on Fifth Avenue at 34th street -- you could walk there in 20- 25 minutes or take a 6 train to 33rd street and walk two blocks to Empire State. The wait to get to the top of the Empire State can be rather long...

Good advice from Dino335
If you have time, catch the Staten Island ferry from lower Manhatten- its free, and you get to see the magnificent skyline of Manhatten. The trip is only a few hours return, and goes all day till late.
Offers admission to many popular attractions. You can buy online and pick up at Planet Hollywood in Times Sq, or else purchase once you arrive. Saved us around $50 each and you don't have to carry large amounts of money to pay enterance fees, and very often you can skip the queue to enter attractions.
You see them everywhere: on every corner you find a hot dog stall! Great, I like it and it belongs to the city.
But how came the sausage into this town?
As it turns out, it is likely that the North American hot dog comes from a widespread common European sausage brought here by butchers of several nationalities. Also in doubt is who first served the dachshund sausage with a roll. One report says a German immigrant sold them, along with milk rolls and sauerkraut, from a push cart in New York City's Bowery during the 1860's.
Not really my fondest memory, but being a nut for urban architecture, can't help but be sad when I think back to the moment when I looked up from where this photo was taken and stared at the twins...
NY is a lovely state...upstate NY has Niagara Falls...a must see.
NYC downtown and nightlife are great. Also, heck out the museums, broadway, and historical sites like the UN building and the State of Liberty/Ellis Island.
Niagara Falls and Buffalo The falls are really beautiful and a wonder to see! I have seen them many times and they still take my breath away. A really fun thing to do is take a boat trip on ' The Maid of the Mist' It takes you right up to the falls but prepared to get get very wet! For more on Niagara Falls...visit my Buffalo page

Q: JFK to Morningside Heights "I am arriving at JFK on July 1st (a sunday) around 11 am. Since I'll be alone and with a fair amount of luggage, I was thinking..."
A: "That's the price I paid on my last trip to NYC. Sunday's are usually lighter, but you never can count on a quick trip from JFK to down town."
