The city is taking proactive steps to increase tourism outside of Manhattan. This area will always be the mecca of tourist concentration, and likewise, Midtown in general.. I tend to love stats, and I hope they do a study on the daytime population in Manhattan by 2020. Currently, a study by NYU put the average weekday population at 4 million (typical weekday). Curious how it will jump in the next 5 years.

Especially in December. Take the normal daytime population, and now add the surge of shoppers and visitors. The streets and sidewalks where clogged the days I went.
NJ transit I agree on. Being a rider, the rush hour is getting to the point where they probably should add more train cars.
