Best Places to visit in New York City

We just got back from a wonderful week long field trip and architecture tour of New York City. 
A crazy schedule jam packed run from one building tour to another, all day with 50 other students.
Here are my favorite places in NYC:
 
The High Line Park
Sometimes when you walk through a building or space you think, they could have done this or that to make it better.  Not with the High Line!  It is perfection. 



Guggenheim - The Frank Lloyd Wright Building
From pictures on the Internet and in books, the building looks gigantic and almost too big.  However, I had the completely opposite experience when visiting the Guggenheim in person.  When walking down the street, from the moment I saw the exterior of the building, it was ideal companion to the neighborhood.  The inside architecture design was an inspiration from heaven and perfect balance of space and function kindling a wonderful feeling of comfort.

Scotty's Diner
Absolutely "the best hamburger I have every tasted" one student said.
