New York in spring

I'll fourth the Cloisters because I lived in NYC for 4 years and never made it there myself!! I'll live vicariously through you :-P
Union Square is fun! St. Mark's place is a feast for the eyes- so many funky little shops and an interesting crowd. Near there is one of my favorite spots to eat- Saint's Alp Teahouse. Everything is absolutely delicious and really cheap! Plus, they make the best bubble tea I've ever had.
Dylan's Candy Bar on the upper east side is pretty great too. Pricey...but so much fun to wander around! 3 floors worth of candy. :-o
MoMA might be my favorite museum of all time but MoSex is pretty great too. As is the Natural History Museum, The Met, etc, etc, etc. Honestly? Whatever you're into, there's probably a museum in or near the city for it.
Fig:
I've been to NYC twice in my life, both were for school trips. Got to see two different shows on Broadway (Stomp and The Lion King [OMG so awesome.]) so if you're into that kind of stuff, I suggest trying to get one in.

Definitely St. Mark's, just so a few years from now you can say you saw it before gentrification ruined it. :P
Re: plays, try the TKTS kiosk on Times Square (be prepared to stand in line forever), or look at stuff off-Broadway.

If you get anxiety in large crowds like me, every place is bad, hooray! I would just suggest driving as little as possible, I damn near killed everyone in my car the one time I drove in Manhattan (bad night, girlfriend got super mad, said all her friends hated me... we still had sex after, strangely, but I digress). There's supposed to be an elevated garden walkway in (the Bronx? I think?), which sounded awesome. It was converted from a raised train I think.

You're thinking of the High Line. It's in Manhattan.
