has NYC short term apartments
Couple of notes to Calcruzer's post when it comes to racing- Saratoga Racetrack is in Saratoga Springs, New York (roughly 170 miles away), so I believe he meant to suggest Aquaduct racetrack (on the Queens, Long Island border which is open for the fall/winter season) and Belmont (open for the spring/fall season - the summer racing is at Saratoga), also on the Queens/Long Island border.
and there are about another billion things to do in NYC, from free kayaking on the Hudson River, to Bowling to Pub Crawls, to Opera and jazz festivals all depending on the time of year and what you like to do.

When you're trying to spam, it helps to get your story straight between . Not, you know, that we'd allow it through even then, but at least it wouldn't insult our intelligence.

I have left both post #5 and #6 in place so those visiting this thread will see there really isn't any need to add more replies. But, because 3 members did respond, hopefully their information will help those who really do want more information about New York.
Yes, I meant Aqueduct, not Saratoga. Thanks for the correction of the racetrack in my post above.
