a date in New York is narrowing down the many fascinating possibilities. Some cool "dating spots" might include:
The Statue of Liberty
Visiting this special lady can really keep you humble. Throw in a tour of Ellis Island as well.
The Cloisters
This romantic and unique but slightly out of the way museum features art and architecture from the Middle Ages.
Ground Zero

Three thousand people lost their lives in the worst terrorist attack in the history of the United States. A visit would certainly make a sobering and memorable date.
Union Square Market
Open all year round on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Pick up a home-cooked pie to share with your date while you are there!

8. Nightlife in the City That Never Sleeps
Music- The Knitting Factory
Everything from "pop to melancholy noise," it is also a caf, which serves interesting food.

74 Leonard Street
New York, NY 10013
Tel: (212) 219-3132

Dancing-South Street Seaport
Consider a free evening on Pier 16 in front of Skipper's Restaurant any Saturday during the summer of 2008, beginning at 9:30 pm to 1 am or later. Music is mostly Latin and nearby dining (not free but reasonable) is available.

Live Entertainment- The New York Comedy Club

There is a two-drink minimum every night, but cover charges are less ($5) Sundays through Thursday than on Fridays and Saturdays ($10). Worthwhile and funny!

9. To Dine Divine

Here are three fine New York dining experiences, each from a different price range.

Esca (Theater District)

Southern Italian / Seafood. Expensive, but has a great wine list.

402 West 43rd St. (at Ninth Ave)

The Savoy (Soho)
Excellent service and a casual environment. You can enjoy their creative cooking with an emphasis on seasonal ingredients moderately or expensively.

Malaysia Grill (Uptown)

Very reasonably priced, delicious food.

10. Freebies For Two

Although New York is an expensive place to live and play, like the words of that old song, "the best things in life are free." Depending on the season, there are many interesting things to do. In the warmer months consider a walk through Central Park or the smaller "vest pocket" variety such as Paley Park on 53rd between Madison and Fifth Avenues. Along Fifth Avenue is a perfect winter stroll for window-shopping, particularly during the holiday season. Rockefeller Center is close by and a must see if for no other reason than to behold the breathtaking Christmas tree that annually adorns it center.

So what are you waiting or? Make that date and check some of these places out, either all at once or one at a time
