If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes

Ebbitts Field
The original Waldorf Astoria (where the Empire State Building is now)
The Vanderbilt Mansions on Fifth Avenue
Some of the old department stores on Ladies' Mile -- some of the buildings are still there, on Sixth Avenue, but vastly changed.

Agree on Ebbets Field. I went to a game at the Polo Grounds the last year it was open.

I know. There is one at 5th Avenue and 13th Street that used to be a deli. Last time I was in that area there was construction going on. I hope they aren't tearing down the building.

I was watching that thing the other night about those secret underground parts below Grand Central, like the one Roosevelt used so he could get to his room without anyone seeing in a wheelchair. At first, I thought it might be cool to go down and see them. Then I thought about how many rats probably live there.

"Inside the Statue of Liberty"

You didn't miss much. It was hot and cramped and the steps were extremely steep. And when you got to the top, all you could see was downtown Brooklyn. I think it would have been cool to go out onto the torch.

Sardi's

When I went to NYC on my own in May, I was just too

intimidated to go into Sardi's alone. Maybe next time ....

Times Square before Guiliani was terrifying. I hated having to walk through there to get to auditions..I truly feared for my life.

hookers, pimps, drug dealers, transvestites, peep shows..you name it..they were all there.

"hookers, pimps, drug dealers, transvestites, peep shows..you name it..they were all there."

I remember coming into the city by bus and having to step over homeless people at Port Authority Bus Station. I would head toward the exit and there would be drunk or crazy homeless people trying to get money. Then you would step out onto 8th Avenue and see the nastiest part of NYC. The area wasn't called Hell's Kitchen for nothing.

I was born and raised in New York state and have never been inside the Statue of Liberty or to Coney Island. However, I have been in the St. Louis Arch 4 times and and across the Golden Gate Bridge many times times. Go figure.

Before it was torn down, the Ziegfeld was used as a television studio.I was in it but alas I remember nothing of it

I was only in Steeplechase @ Coney & it was great. Would loved to have seen Luna Park & Dreamland but those were even before my time or Dollypop's
