<p>She should check out Central Park Web site – they have weekend, freebie guided walks of different areas in the Park. She should check to see if there are any free concerts in Central Park.

<p>How about the 4th of July fireworks – check on line to find best viewing sites along FDR drive on the East side.</p>
<p>Four gigantic waterfalls have been installed under the Brooklyn Bridge. They can be seen at various vantage points – check the NYTimes last week or any
NYC web site. Plus walking over the Brooklyn Bridge and then having a bite to eat in Brooklyn Heights is fun.</p>
<p>Be sure to check NYTimes on Friday (they list street fairs/festivals), NYMagazine, and Time Out New York.</p>
<p>We live in Northern NJ. Ever since high school, my kids have loved going into the city with friends and just walking around. Downtown is fun to walk
around – St. Mark’s Place, East Village, etc. Good luck to your daughter.</p>
