Seafarers and International House
What an interesting place!   It's a small, almost boutique hotel, right in the center of all things Manhattan!   It's associated with the ELCA Lutheran Church, but everyone is welcome.  It's mission is to support and offer services to the thousand or more ships that dock in NY in any given year!   PS.  You and/or your group could prepare a "gift basket" for a ship this holiday season!  There is about 25 men on a ship, so you need to put 25 "packages" together.  Christmas on the high seas is a lonely day, this is your chance to bring a little sunshine to a total stranger.   Just send an email and ask HOW you can get involved!  SIHNYC.org

THE producersonbroadway.com What a SHOW, great songs, dancing and those ever laughable Mel Brooks jokes!   A must see, but a BIG SUGGESTION!   Pay the money to be on the main level.  The theater is more vertical than horizontal (you know the price of a square foot of land in NY)  and you really want to view the show from the same plane as you sit on! 

NewYork.com Everything New York, from fun to shows to hotels to food!
