What are your favorite places to eat, shop and visit using the stations along the (N) Line between Astoria and Coney Island and the (W) Line between Astoria and Whitehall?

Ditmars Boulevard - My school that I went to in 6th grade was on 21st street so if I went there for 7th and 8th grade I would take the N/W here. It's interesting seeing the workers clean out the trains and the trains themselves leaving. I like the area too.
Astoria Blvd - Hoyt Avenue - The view is amazing. A pretty unique station as well.
Queensboro Plaza - Good place for taking pictures.
(60th Street tube)
Times Square - I like this area of the subway in general because I like the renovation turnout and just simply walking around.
Herald Square - Pretty interesting as well
Union Square - One of my favorite stations (as in the whole complex)
Canal St - If you got an R40 and railfanned the bit before this you'd see why it's interesting.
(The Manhattan Bridge, a given)

Right after 36th Street, where the N goes outside onto the Sea Beach line
Finally, Coney Island. Wonderful work of architecture.
