New York City regains luster for tourists

By musiclover - Wed Aug 11, 2:42 pm

New York City drew 8.75 percent more tourists in the first half of this year versus a year-ago, with international travel rebounding the most, Mayor Michael Bloomberg and other officials said on Wednesday.

The city expects about 47.5 million visitors by the end of 2010, which would represent a 4.5 percent increase from 2009 and set a new record. The previous high-water mark occurred in 2008, when 47 million people traveled to the Big Apple.
