The Shops at Columbus Circle
The Columbus Circus mall is located just across Central Park. The Shops at Columbus Circle range from fashion and accessories to health and beauty, books and food. I’m pretty sure you can find a favorite.
Some Thoughts on Times Square
People visiting New York City will most likely sooner or later come to Times Square around 42nd and 47th Street.

Most people living on Coney Island, located in southernmost Brooklyn with its famous beach on the Atlantic Ocean, are Hispanic or African-American. The area was once a major resort and home to amusements parks as the Steeplechase Park, the heart of Coney between 1897 and 1964. Its founder George [...]
