The New York Public Library is one of my favorite places to visit. I like poking around in libraries all over the place and the NYPL is one of the most impressive. If you can, take in a Broadway show (we usually see what shows have half-price tickets).
If you're near the UN, take a peak at the Beekman Tower Hotel. It was originally built in the 1920s as a residence for NPC women. At one time, it was the tallest building in the neighborhood. Now it is one of the smallest structures.
