I'm very jealous, I absolutely adore New York but not been for a few years :-(

very envious, somewhere I've always wanted to visit but something has always prevented me from going (normally lack of funds)
Must cross this one of my mental list of things to do.

If you can get a hire car, it's worth a drive out on Long Island. I spent a lot of time out there, many moons ago. The sound side has some
really picturesque spots.
And Uwe's bar in Oyster Bay is where Billy Joel hangs out, and still plays there on the piano on odd occasions, as he has a quiet glass.
He's written of the place in a few songs.
Orange County Choppers isn't far from NYC as well.
Cheers,
Nev.
