[quote=Anonymous]does your 16 year old like art? Your ticket (technically donation) for Metropolitan Museum of Art also gets you into the Cloisters at the north end of Manhattan. It's filled with medieval European Art and housed in a beautiful building. Walking the grounds of the Cloisters and the park that surrounds it is also a nice break from the city.

Over in Brooklyn is the Smorgasburg (http://www.smorgasburg.com/) every weekend. Kinda fun to walk around and try some of the food. My favorite restaurant is in Williamsburg--BrisketTown. Best brisket outside of Texas, imo. It's small and tucked away and worth the effort if you're into that sort of thing.

Stroll the High Line, wander the West Village.

I second riding the Staten Island Ferry. Free, and not anywhere near as crowded as the Statue of Liberty ferry or the water tours that cost a bunch of money.

Finally, I found the 9/11 memorial surprisingly moving (and I'm extremely cynical about how people use 9/11 for cover of all sorts of things). It wasn't what I was expecting at all, and I, who can have a heart of stone, was flooded with emotion.[/quote]
