ICW in The Big Apple

Greater New York Dental Meeting 

ICW is participating at the Greater New York Dental Meeting from November 25^th – November 30^th 2016 at booth #3406. With more than 54,000 attendees the event is considered to be the largest Dental Meeting in the United States with a growing number every year. Many of the vendors, companies and participants have been in NY before, some are even locals and consider the meeting as their "Home-game", but a large number are also first time visitors and never had the chance to visit New York, or even the U.S.A. before.   

In that case, we all know how stressful such a business trip can be. Finding a good place to stay, booking the trip and packing everything (don't forget your toothbrush) and at the same time organizing everything for the convention..not so much fun. But, with the right planning and information beforehand, it can still turn into an enjoyable trip, or at least into one which you will never forget (for whatever reason) with at many, or thousands, of amazing pictures and images "to brag" about for years after.

Reason enough for us at ICW to give you some ideas to make your trip even better by visiting some of our favorite locations, food places and of course the “Must See” places that you simply shouldn’t miss during your stay at the Big Apple, besides the typical "Tourist Traps". (we still mention some of them for you) 

FOOD

After a long day at the convention nothing sound better than finding a good place to enjoy your dinner, her are some of our Food favorites

Momofuku Noodle Bar - 171 1st Avenue

World renown chef and delicious Asian cuisine. This is a must for every visitor. Get in the line around 4:30pm to get a seat for dinner. Doors open at 5pm.

The Grange Bar & Eatery - 1635 Amsterdam Avenue
 

Great and creative cocktails, great wine and beer selections. Farm to table food options. A 4p-7p happy hour. Rustic, roomy, chic space. Good place to start or end the evening.

SIGHTSEEING

 If you find some time during the day to do some Sightseeing, here are some locations you should definitely visit to make your trip unforgettable 

 

Statue of Liberty

The Statue of Liberty is a colossal neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in New York Harbor in New York City, in the United States.

 

Times Squares

Times Square is a major commercial intersection and neighborhood in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, at the junction of Broadway and Seventh Avenue, and stretching from West 42nd to West 47th Streets.

Top of the Rock - 30 Rockefeller Plaza

If this is your first time visiting NYC I would highly suggest a trip to Top of the Rock. The views are amazing. The top floor is open to the air with 360 degree views. The best part you can have the Empire State Building or Central Park in your photos... which is not possible from the observation deck at the Empire State Building.

 St. Patrick's Cathedral - 14 East 51st Street / 5th Avenue

The Cathedral of St. Patrick is a decorated Neo-Gothic-style Roman Catholic cathedral church in the United States and a prominent landmark of New York City. It is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, and a parish church, located on the east side of Fifth Avenue between 50th and 51st Streets in Midtown Manhattan.

ART

New York has a lot to offer for almost everybody. So take your time and explore some of the amazing and also unique Art NY has to offer

American Museum of Natural History - 79 Central Park West

The Museum is renowned for its exhibitions and scientific collections, which serve as a field guide to the entire planet and present a panorama of the world's cultures.
