Long Island City, New York

Population: 8,008,278

Bustling with activity, New York City is a place of vibrant energy, modern thought and national history. With each neighborhood and district sporting its own particular flair in cuisine, shopping and culture, there is more to see in the city than can be done in a day or even a week. Central Park, with its many family-oriented attractions, and the world-famous Statue of Liberty are just two of New York City's must-see spots. "The City That Never Sleeps" is an ideal place to indulge with an extravagant night out at an upscale restaurant followed by a Broadway show or shopping at the chicest stores in the nation. New sights and experiences are around virtually every corner in this hub of American commerce and culture.
