One more thing... Rent-car may be not a good idea. Sometimes it's hard to find the parking spot. ^.^ As Andrew said, it will be better to use public transportations such as cab, bus, and sub-way. It may take more time, but sometimes the driving style of New Yorker may be a little bit offensive, and finding parking lot may be a challenge. :-) If you are one of owls, there are plenty of places you can visit in night/early morning when you are not in the mood for sleeping ^>^
