Re: NYC advice
If you were more of a "foodie" then I'd say stay down by the Brooklyn Bridge. Your friend is right, there are some wonderful places to eat at in the area. And of course you're walking distance to most of the lower end of Manhattan. But if you're there with the family, I think Times Square would offer you more to see and do.
If time permits, take your kids to China Town. We went a few years ago (I'm originally a New Yorker) when my kids were roughly 10 through 15. When we were driving down Canal Street I swear their eyes were going to bug out of their heads. To this day they still remember the fresh fish markets as one of the most interesting things they saw on the trip.
