New York in the Fall of 2001

1-Jan-2010 • New York United States

After so many years, I had the good fortune of visiting New York anew in the fall of 2001.  It had been quite a long time since I found myself in Manhattan since my very first visit to the Big Apple last 1994.  Little did I know it was going to be the start of more and frequent visits to one of the country's most exciting destinations since my partner, Marc, had to work in New York as a consultant for a company there.

At the famous Rockefeller Center last November 2001

My trip to New York coincided with the New York Marathon.  Runners from all over the world were in town in full force.

In front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

I have visited this museum twice and it is a definite must see for anyone visiting New York.  Its collection and exhibits are world class and truly impressive.

Times Square at night. This place is truly awesome with all its neon lights all aglow at night.

The Super chic and exclusive Club 21

Across the Club 21 or simply 21 for New Yorkers.  A long time bar and restaurant dating back to the prohibition era and frequented by important and famous celebrities from  all over the USA
