@mom60 like @HImom I have spent time with family of different mobility levels in NYC. In my experience there are inclusive options if that is the preferred trip with you and your sisters.

I had lived in NYC for multiple years, and my parents had also spent about 4 months living in NYC in college sabbatical housing, so we were pretty comfortable in NYC.

That being said, when my mother’s cancer metastasized in her bones her mobility was comprised. As a family we decided to spend a Thanksgiving in NYC after her diagnosis, and crafted a week in NYC that worked…

–We stayed at the Beacon in a suite with a small kitchen. So we could eat in when needed. My dad and I walked to get groceries.

–We scheduled matinee performances of shows so my mom would not be too tired.

–We took cabs and buses as needed. This was in 2015, I think now Uber or Lyft would maybe have been our choice, but they were not as ubiquitous then.

–We had a wonderful trip with shows, museums, family dinner at the Beacon, and a few meals out.

All options being shared sound great. Just offering another option.
