Agree with your point completely, which is why I suggest SoHo, Village, and Meatpacking areas where they're more likely to spend their time. Again, it depends on what people enjoy about NYC. My friends who visit don't care for Times Square, Empire State, etc.
But this is straying from the Thread so, I'll just leave it at that.
