One notable exception is around Thanksgiving when there is generally a wider selection of apartments available for three or less people. This makes for a great opportunity to come into New York and shop on Black Friday or take part in the Thanksgiving Day parade.

The parade begins at the Museum of Natural History on Central Park West and travels down to Broadway, where it continues all the way down to Herald Square (34th Street and Broadway, the site of Macy\u2019s). The parade can be seen nationwide on TV, but experiencing it firsthand is truly something to behold. The parade features hundreds of floats, giant balloons and marching bands. There are plenty of places to watch the Parade along Broadway and Central Park West. For more info about the parade see: <a title=\"New York in Song - Thanksgiving Day Parade\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nyhabitat.com\/blog\/2006\/11\/06\/new-york-in-song-thanksgiving-day-parade\/\">New York in Song &#8211; Thanksgiving Parade<\/a>.<div class=\"img \" style='width:228px;'>\n\t<a title=\"New York in Song: Thanksgiving Day Parade\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nyhabitat.com\/blog\/2006\/11\/06\/new-york-in-song-thanksgiving-day-parade\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.nyhabitat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/11\/thanksgiving-day-parade.jpg\" alt=\"New York in Song - Thanksgiving Parade\" width=\"228\" height=\"245\" \/><\/a>\n\t<div>New York in Song - Thanksgiving Parade<\/div>\n<\/div><\/li>\n<li style=\"padding-top: 20px;\">Dinner in New York on Thanksgiving allows you to enjoy turkey at some of New York\u2019s best restaurants. For those looking for something fancy, Asiate in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel offers a deluxe dinner and a great location just off of Columbus Circle. On the other hand, if you are looking for something a bit more classic, try Virgil\u2019s BBQ featuring smoked turkeys and all of the traditional fixings at a location just blocks from Times Square.<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding-top: 20px;\">Black Friday shopping is the other major event of the weekend. Black Friday gained its name because in the past it was traditionally the busiest shopping day of the year and many stores reached profitability, which in accounting is often called \u201cin the black.\u201d Hence, Black Friday was born. Macy\u2019s, the sponsor of the parade as well as other department stores throughout the city, offer big sales on Friday and throughout the weekend. So, come and get that holiday shopping done early.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Anyway, for those of you on the fence about whether to come, take a look at our <a title=\"New York Vacation Rentals\" href=\"\/new-york-apartment\/vacation\">New York accommodation<\/a> options and, if you find the perfect place, take a trip to New York for the Thanksgiving festivities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we talked about several weeks ago, one of the most important factors in finding holiday apartments in New York is to book early.
