Later, the tour moves across each avenue, from Lexington, to Park Avenue, Madison Avenue, 5th Avenue, etc.
The tour moves through to 6th Avenue, stopping at Rockefeller Center and the NBC Store at 30 Rock!
Later, you see St. Patrick's Cathedral and the famous ice skating rink and iconic Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Plaza!
Eventually you will travel to Times Square. Back then, it was a bit seedy, coming off the near bankruptcy of NYC in the late 1970's.
You will see store fronts and marquises that were NOT very family friendly. All that changed in the 1990's during a period of revitalization.
