A co-authored thriller set in OSLO
Your chance to win a great New York themed prize in our competition this month!
19th October 2016
We have a really great New York themed prize package for you this month… containing no less than 5 items!
- A copy of Bright, Precious Days by Jay McInerney. The book describes the travails of an upmarket family in New York during 2007 and 2008 in the run up to Obama’s first election victory. It is well written and great on both location and time – truly bringing the city to life.
- A copy of Men Like Air by Tom Connolly. Another book great for its New York background – the story moves around Manhattan and the other New York boroughs, painting brilliant pictures of each.
- A new Marco Polo guide to the city – one of the most informative that we have encountered, full of off-beat observations and unusual places to visit.
- An adult colouring book featuring many famous (and some not so famous) New York buildings.
- Finally a pack of crayons to help with your colouring in!
To enter the competition all you have to do is write in the Comments Box below the one building in New York that you would really love to visit.
It really is that easy!
The competition closes at midnight UK time on Sunday 30th October – and the winner will be the first name out of the hat on Monday 31st.

Congratulations to Teresa!
Radio City Music Hall and finally join the Rockettes as their clumsiest member!
I also want to see the public library. But I also want to see all the sights.
The 9-11 memorial.
The Public Library . I’ll find me a little nook and a great book.
Museum of Ice cream
Rockefeller for me! Right to the top to over look the city!
Only one!! I’m lucky I have been to NYC numerous times and have probably visited all the buildings I ‘want’to see so I will go with my favourite Serendipity 3 fabulous cafe for pure indulgence. Be prepared for a long wait to get in though!
It has to be the iconic Empire State Building, preferably when it’s all lit up like in the end scene of Sleepless in Seattle!
I have been to NYC a couple of times. I have checked out most of the main buildings but for some reason have never crossed over the Brooklyn Bridge. I would love to do a walking tour there and it is on my next visit agenda.
The MOMA.
I was lucky to be in NYC in Oct 2014, and I would like to *return* to the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. I was taking my time, reading and listening to everything —was so engaged, that I ran out of time and missed several parts of the exhibits!
Managed to visit New York a month or so before 9/11 and my friend and I just couldn’t take in the size of the buildings(Wasn’t a great help that all the way up in the lift she kept saying if there is a terrorist attack we stand no chance!!)So to see as it is now would really bring things home for me
The Statue of Liberty. In a world that seems to be very lost right now, she represents hope.
The costume gallery at the Met.
Hi,I’ve never been to New York yet.I’d love to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art <3
I’d love to visit the Grand Central Station!
The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Would love to go to the top of the Empire State Building.
The Guggenheim Museum, not just for the incredible art but for the fabulous Frank Loyd Wright-designed building itself!
Metropolitan Museum of ARt
New York Public Library
I visited NYC for the first time in September and spent most of our time in midtown. We saw the Public Library and Bryant Park, Rockefeller Centre, MoMA, Yankee Stadium, Citi field, and the Billie Jean King Tennis Centre. I wasn’t able to visit the 911 Memorial Museum and will make it a priority on my next visit.
I love NY so much! One place I have not been yet while there is the famous Grand central
The Metropolitan Museum of Art!
Natural History museum-we missed that on our visit to NYC.
I would dearly love to visit the Museum of Art.
MOMA. I’ve been to the gift shop…but didn’t have sufficient time to roam the museum.
I would love to see the 911 memorial. The last time I was in New York, the towers were still there.
The toy shop in the Home Alone film ❤️
I worked in New York for a while so a did see quite a few buildings albeit briefly. However, I didn’t get to Central Park so although it’s not a building, I’d really like to go there as I feel it is quintessentially New York.
does it have to be a building? The place I most want to visit in New York is Central Park!
I would love to visit MOMA and the Cloisters.
A cliche I know but i would love to visit The Empire State Building.
I would love to see the New York’s Public library Main branch.
The Empire State Building
The somewhat scary and quirky Dakota on the upper West side of Manhattan. From the film Rosemary’s Baby to being the home of many famous folks, John Lennon, Judy Garland & Lauren Bacall. I would love to see inside the lobby.
Lucky enough to visit New York in 2014 and saw most of the buildings I wanted to see. However only walked past Carnegie Hall and would love to go inside.
I’d love to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art – fab building, fab art!
It has to be the Chrysler! I somehow managed to miss this on my last and only trip to New York…but many episodes of Sex and the City later, for me it’s THE iconic symbol of NYC and a darn beautiful piece of architecture!
I’d like to see the iconic Empire State Building.
The iconic Flatiron building!! Nothing compares to this uniquely shaped building, I would love to see it in person
I’d like to revisit and see the 9/11 memorial.
