Staten Island Sites and Scenes
Is there anything at the other side of that ferry? You bet. Staten Island's diverse attractions are some of NYC's best kept secrets, and the museums, parks, and historical attractions presented here offer ample proof. A visit to the Tibetan Museum or the 191 acre Clove Lakes Park just might lure you across the Narrows. Clickable maps and ferry schedules included.

Greewich-Village.com
Visiting the Village? This cheesy looking community-run site highlights area restaurants, events, and establishments. Post on the bulletin board, or use the search features to find new and fun places to dine or shop. We found the "True Story of Greewich Village" history fascinating, and wished there were more photos.

Home to Harlem
Making a trip to the Apollo Theater? Home to Harlem will get you there. Use its map, culture guide, and tour itineraries as your guide to one of the most historically rich neighborhoods in NYC. Unfortunately, content is shallow and navigation is clumsy here, but you should find something more worthwhile on the links page.

Queens
Not a pretty site, but you get an idea of what to do in Queens with this Chamber of Commerce guide. Lots of links for art and culture (the grand Queens Museum of Art), parks, and sports (Lets go Mets!) take you to prettier, more informative Queens sites.
