| 5th Avenue Door This intricate doorway is along 5th Avenue right next to the walkway that goes into Rockefeller Center. You can see the gold carvings above the doors. Right near Rockefeller Center is the famous St Patrick's Cathedral. The interior is as beautiful as the intricate design of the exterior. |  |

| Atlas Yes, it's Atlas and he is holding the earth on his shoulders. This earth however seems a little lighter than usual. Perhaps it's a stunt globe? |  |

| Christian Dior A little farther north is Christian Dior. Stop in and try on a sleek and classic design and feel fabulous. |  |
|
| The Disney Store Then the second happiest place in New York City, next to Chumley's, is the Disney Store! Spend, Spend, Spend! Good little tourists! |  |

|
| Look Up Don't forget to find time to look up at the buildings. |  |
|
| Warner Brothers Store Another store for the tourist in you, the Warner Brothers Store. A little more hip than the other entertainment conglomerate down the street. Unfortunately it's closed now. |  |
|
| Look South Take a look downtown on 5th Ave to see if any one's following you. It's not paranoia, its a heightened state of awareness. |  |

|
| Central Park The statue at the south east corner of Central Park in Grand Army Plaza |  |
