Shop NYC Top

Hi Reddit, I am taking a trip to NYC after having moved away 4/5 years ago. I find when I go back that I always come back to the neighborhoods I have nostalgia for (Astoria, Jackson Heights, East Village/LES, Greenwich Village, Harlem/Morningside Heights/UWS), and I frequent the same restaurants, shops, etc. While I plan to revisit some old favorites, I was wondering if anyone has suggestions of things to do that may be newer NYC phenomena? I love walking, art, bookstores, live music, sitting near the water, and most importantly I am a huge foodie, with a preference for cheapish eats. Open to all boroughs. Any recommendations are appreciated, even if it’s something that’s existed for longer than five years but which you think I might enjoy. Thank you 🙂
