After my 26 years living in New York City, I always drove except when going into Manhattan during peak travel or holiday periods. The subway system in New York can take some time to comprehend and master, but it's by far the best option for mass transportation into the City (Manhattan). Taxis will cost you a bundle, particularly since they charge you while stuck in traffic.It will depend how long you'll be in the City and what areas you intend to visit.
It is very expensive to park in Manhattan, so most tourists do not rent cars. A few recommendations. If staying in a hotel, ask your hotel clerk for a current copy of the subway map.
Schedules and maintenance can change frequently. You can also view or print a current copy from mta.info/nyct/subway/ . There are also numerous iPhone apps available.
Familiarize yourself with the system and the stop nearest to where you are staying before setting out. Also look into the city bus system.Travel on the subway system is best if you are staying in Manhattan. You can get to Manhattan from any of the boroughs of NYC, but you may need to take a bus to the nearest station.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
