Greetings friends!

I am heading to the US to spend two weeks with my fiancée again next September, and we both want to go visit NYC during then. I am planning on getting a hotel for a night or 2 so we can stay there for 3 days, and one of those 3 days I wanna spend visiting locations from the GB Franchise.

Now Obviously the firehouse, the library and 55 central park west "spook central" are on the list, but what other locations are a must visit that I can all see in 1 day?

I am asking this now as I like to plan early so that I know how much dosh I need, and only have to focus on that part anymore for the rest of the year.

Anyways, lemme know what locations I should put on the route, and have a wonderful day/night

It's relatively easy to do all the biggies in one day - my wife and I managed it back in 2018. Working roughly north to south we did:

- Columbia University
- Lincoln Center
- 55 Central Park West
- Columbus Circle
- Times Square and Madame Tussauds (these are video game and ATC based, so perhaps optional based on your preferences!)
- New York Public Library
- Washington Square Park
- The Firehouse
- City Hall and GB2 court house and the "run some red lights" place
- National Museum of the American Indian
- Staten Island ferry at night for the statue of liberty and lower Manhattan views

There was time for photos and lunch and stuff because Manhattan Island isn't really that big compared to some other places and it was a nice if full on day.

It's a fun day trip, absolutely able to see everything (at a comfy pace) you could want GB related.

Is there still a Ghostbusters presence at Madame Tussauds? I thought it left when the Void closed.

I thought I’d seen recent photos of the ATC waxworks in there, I could easily be wrong though. We went after the Void had left and it was all still in otherwise, that was five years ago, though! It’s still on the site as an attraction, for what it’s worth: https://www.madametussauds.com/new-york ... stbusters/
