New York State

by traveldave - last update: Nov 1, 2007

It has been about 30 years since I visited New York City. As a small boy, my family and I occasionally drove from neighboring Connecticut to attend New York Yankees baseball games at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx.

We also went into Manhattan on at least one occasion. About the only thing I recall with any clarity is looking up in amazement at the tall skyscrapers. That trip to New York City gave me an interest in tall buildings that exists to this day. My heart was therefore broken when New York City's two tallest buildings collapsed as a result of terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.

Since those early visits to New York City, I have returned several times, but only to make connections at John F. Kennedy International Airport on my way to Europe or Africa.

In October 2002, I visited Niagara Falls, Buffalo, and Rochester in Upstate New York. Therefore, most of the tips on this page relate to some of the sights I saw on that trip.

 Shame about the area around the falls but all places capitalise on a big draw = enjoyed the virtual tour

 A great little page Dave, full of all sorts of interesting information! The Niagara Mohawk building is quite impressive and so is the engineering behind the Erie Canal. I visited the 1000 Islands area myself last month, for the first time!

 Enjoyed your fine insights. Agree with tourist trap tips. So few people think of anything but New York City when they think of the state of New York. Thanks for all the helpful, informative tips.

 I'm sure New York State isn't less interesting than the City itself. Really it attracts with its sights (not only Niagara Falls!). Thanks David for virtual travel -a very good VT-page!
