  • Go shopping at Macy’s Herald Square
  • See the Million Dollar Corner at Broadway and West 34th Street, a small corner plot purchased in an attempt to block Macy’s from becoming the largest store in the world.
  • See the historic Hotel McAlpin building at Broadway and West 34th Street, now private apartments, it was the largest hotel in the world when it opened in 1912.
