What are some fun things to do in nyc that are not to expensive?

It costs nothing to walk the streets and see sights that you can only see in New York City. You can go to Rockefeller Center, go to the MTV studios (they don't have tours, but from street level you might see something being broadcast.) You can also hang around the studios when they air the Today Show, the CBS Morning Show or Good Morning America--maybe you'd even get on TV, briefly.

The Staten Island Ferry is free. Ride it to Staten Island and then get an amazing view of downtown Manhattan on the way back.

Check out the lobby of Trump Tower, and anyone can go into Tiffany--you don't have to buy a thing.What are some fun things to do in nyc that are not to expensive?

Walking around

Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge

Staten Island Ferry

Subways (approximately $2 to enter; can ride all day by switching trains at the right stations)

Some of the museumsWhat are some fun things to do in nyc that are not to expensive?
1. JULLIARD School of Music is a conservatory that gives performances for FREE on most days of the week. You can check their schedule on their website. I suggest going to an event that is hosted at PAUL HALL - it's a real concert hall and the whole experience is wonderful.

2. Definitely go to the Metropolitan Museum - it's one of the best museums in the world. Collections range from ancient Egyptian to medieval. Price: no matter what the posters say, the price is voluntary. They "suggest" paying some $10, but you can give as little as one penny and no one will give you a dirty look because it's the law.

3. Same goes with Museum of Natural History if you like staring at dinosaurs skeletons.

4. Empire State Building has a free observation deck, I think. Find out where.
Just ride a bus thru greenwich village, you get a free freak show!What are some fun things to do in nyc that are not to expensive?
Take the Staten Island Ferry from lower Manhattan, to Staten Island, and back again. It used to be free, and I think it still is! It's a great ferry ride and you will have amazing views.
