88 billion a year apparently gets spent by tourists in NYC, that's a bootload of money for even a city as big as NYC.
Of course the negative part is that a lot of those dollars get spent at the tourist traps, not small local businesses. But I know when I was there, I walked around and tried to visit completely unknown looking pizza places and bars too. And a taco truck.
