Endless Manhattan Attractions near Crowne Plaza Times Square Hotel

New York is the city of a million pursuits and passions: fashion, art, music, history, sightseeing, dining, you name it.  When you choose to stay at Crowne Plaza Times Square Manhattan hotel, you’re near them all!

A quick cab ride or subway trip takes you to the Intrepid Sea - Air - Space Museum, Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt Museum of Design, the world-renowned Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the innovative Museum of Modern Art. Downtown, there’s the Museum of Contemporary Art and Rudin Museum of Asian Art. Or perhaps you’d prefer intimate special collections, also within easy reach, such as the Frick Collection with 2 Vermeer paintings or the incomparable literary riches of the Morgan Library.

If your tastes run more toward dinosaurs, stars, and scientific phenomena, head right up to the Museum of Natural History, with its legendary dioramas, and its mind-boggling planetarium shows.

For nowhere-else-to-be-seen sights, you need to visit the 86th Floor (or maybe even the 102nd Floor) Observatory of the Empire State Building and the 67th Floor outdoor terrace of 30 Rockefeller Center, The Top of the Rock. Outdoor fitness buffs and romantics who enjoy a hand-in-hand walk will not want to miss the meadows and lawns of Central Park.

Be sure to window shop or pursue some serious retail therapy. There’s nothing like shopping in New York.
