  5. Another vote for the Tenement Museum — one of my favorite places to take NYC visitors.

  13. I had to vote for the C47 Skytrain WWII Transport at the Gateway National Recreation Area, looks too awesome to not be preserved! @AllisonCMeier

  16. Snug Harbor:
    1) One of the most atmospheric places I have been to, ever. I swear the ghost of Herman Melville wanders around here.
    2) If someone put a gun to my head and forced me to throw a big wedding, it would be here. Tons of places for people to check out and for kids to explore.
    3) I used to use the old library as a haven to write in the summer time.
    God, I love Snug Harbor.

  29. I voted for Gateway National Recreation Area – C47 Skytrain WWII Transport
