COMMENTS
Portfolio manager Cathryn Steeves discusses economic and municipal market
conditions at both the national and state levels, key investment strategies, and
the annual performance of these six New York Funds. Cathryn, who joined Nuveen
in 1996, assumed portfolio management responsibility for the New York Funds in
July 2006.
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE ANNUAL
REPORTING PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006?
In response to market concerns about oil prices, inflation, and the actions of
the Federal Reserve over the past 12 months, bond yields exhibited some
volatility during this reporting period, with longer-term rates peaking in
October 2005 and again in June 2006. For the period as a whole, interest rates
at the shorter end of the yield curve generally continued to rise, while longer
rates posted smaller increases and even declined. As short-term rates approached
and exceeded the levels of long-term rates, the yield curve became increasingly
flat and the inverted. Consequently, bonds with longer durations1 generally
outperformed those with shorter durations during this period.
Between October 1, 2005 and September 30, 2006, the Federal Reserve announced
increases in the fed funds rate at six of its eight Open Market Committee
meetings, before leaving monetary policy unchanged at the August and September
2006 sessions. These six increases of 0.25% each raised the short-term target by
150 basis points, from 3.75% to 5.25%, its highest level since March 2001.
During this same period, the yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note
rose just 30 basis points to end September 2006 at 4.63%. By contrast, in the
municipal market, the yield on the Bond Buyer 25 Revenue Bond Index, a widely
followed measure of longer-term municipal market rates, stood at 4.77% at the
end of September 2006, down 27 basis points from the end of September 2005.
Economic growth over the past year reflected the fluctuations in interest rates,
energy prices, and the effects of a softening housing market. After expanding at
a rate of 1.8% in the fourth quarter of 2005, the U.S. gross domestic product
(GDP) rebounded sharply to 5.6% in the first quarter of 2006 before moderating
to 2.6% in the second quarter of 2006 (all GDP numbers annualized). In the third
quarter of 2006, GDP growth recorded a weaker-than-expected 1.6%, with the
deceleration largely resulting from a 17% slump in residential investment,
although consumer spending remained relatively solid. Despite slower growth, the
markets continued to keep a close eye on inflation trends. While the
year-over-year increase in the Consumer Price Index registered a relatively
benign 2.1% in September 2006, the core rate (which excludes food and energy
prices) rose 2.9% over the same period, the largest increase in 10 years. In
general, the jobs picture remained

changes than bonds with shorter durations.

positive, with national unemployment at 4.6% in September 2006, down from 5.1%
in September 2005.
Over the 12 months ended September 2006, municipal bond issuance nationwide
totaled $368.2 billion, down 9% from the previous 12 months. This total
reflected the general decrease in the supply of municipal paper during 2006.
After reaching record levels in calendar year 2005, municipal supply declined
during the first nine months of 2006, with $261.6 billion in new securities
coming to market, off 16% from the same period in 2005. A major factor in 2006's
drop was the sharp reduction in pre-refunding volume, which fell more than 54%
from last year's levels, as rising interest rates made advance refundings less
economically attractive. Overall, demand for municipal bonds, especially those
offering higher yields, continued to be strong and broad-based, with retail
investors, property and casualty insurance companies, and hedge funds all
participating in the market.
HOW WERE THE ECONOMIC AND MARKET ENVIRONMENTS IN NEW YORK DURING
THIS PERIOD?
New York ranked as the 25th fastest growing state economy in the nation in 2005,
led by the financial, professional and business, and educational and health
sectors. Despite New York's increased economic diversity, the financial services
industry continued to be the key driver of the state's economy, representing 4%
of the total number of jobs but 20% of the wages in the state. While tourism
returned to pre-9/11 levels, the continued loss of manufacturing jobs,
especially in upstate New York, meant that economic recovery was largely
centered around New York City and its suburbs. As of September 2006, the
unemployment rate in the state was 4.4%, down from 5.1% in September 2005 and
the lowest since March 2001. New York's population trends, which have lagged the
nation for years, remained weak, with growth of less than 2% over the past five
years.
Following several years of deficits and delays in budget enactment, New York's
financial condition has shown gradual improvement. For fiscal 2006, the state
erased the general fund's negative balance to end the year $384 million in the
black. The $113.6 billion budget for fiscal 2007 was adopted on March 31, 2006,
the second year in a row that New York passed its budget by the legally required
April 1 deadline. This budget took some steps toward funding a 2005 mandate
requiring New York City schools to guarantee a basic education for its children,
with increased school operations aid of $1.3 billion and $1.8 billion in new
school construction aid. The budget also authorized New York City's Transitional
Finance Authority to issue $9.4 billion in bonds for school operations
construction. In general, New York's revenues remain vulnerable to Wall Street
cycles, with 51% of the
5
state's general fund receipts generated by personal income taxes, which are
heavily dependent on high-paying jobs in the financial sector as well as
securities prices and capital gains. The state continued to face forecasted
budget deficits in fiscal 2008 ($3.2 billion) and 2009 ($5.4 billion).
In December 2005, Moody's upgraded its rating on New York general obligation
bonds to Aa3 from A1, citing improving financial operations. This rating was
reconfirmed in March 2006, as was Standard & Poor's rating of AA. For the 12
months ended September 30, 2006, municipal issuance in New York totaled $34.6
billion, down 26% from the previous 12 months. During the first nine months of
2006, New York supply declined even more sharply, falling 37% from that of
January-September 2005, to $20.5 billion. While New York remained the second
largest state issuer in the nation for the 12-month period, the state slipped to
fourth for the year-to-date. According to Moody's, the state's tax-supported
debt has grown 37% since 2001, ranking New York second in the nation behind
California in this category. In terms of debt per capita and debt as a
percentage of personal income, New York ranks fifth.
WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE NEW YORK FUNDS DURING THIS REPORTING
PERIOD?
As the municipal yield curve flattened over this 12-month period, we continued
to emphasize careful management of the Funds' underlying portfolios in line with
our established targets. This included a disciplined approach to duration
management and yield curve positioning. In watching the market for potential new
additions to our portfolios, we focused mainly on attractively priced, premium
coupon2 bonds in the 18- to 22-year part of the yield curve, which we considered
to offer excellent value. Overall, we believed that the bonds we purchased
provided strong performance potential, support for the Funds' income streams,
and attractive reward opportunities without excessive risk.
As part of our duration management strategies, we also selectively sold holdings
with shorter durations. Selling these shorter duration bonds and reinvesting
further out on the yield curve helped to improve the Funds' overall call
protection profile. We also took advantage of opportunities to sell selected
holdings when we believed that prevailing prices made these bonds attractive
sales candidates.
Although issuance in New York, as previously mentioned, declined sharply during
this period, the reduction in supply did not have a major impact on the
implementation of these or other strategies we had planned for these Funds.
Since New York is a relatively high-quality state, much of the new supply was
insured and/or highly rated, and we

levels. Historically, these bonds have held their value better than current
coupon bonds when interest rates rise.

found opportunities to purchase bonds that helped us carry out our strategies,
including insured health care bonds. We also bought insured bonds issued by New
York City Industrial Development Agency to finance new stadiums for the New York
Yankees and Mets, which were added to all six Funds.
In NKO and NRK, which can invest up to 20% of their assets in uninsured
investment-grade quality securities, we also continued to emphasize maintaining
an exposure to BBB rated credits. However, as credit spreads continued to narrow
and municipal supply tightened, we generally found few attractively structured
lower-rated credit opportunities in the New York market that we believed would
add value to these Funds.

unleveraged, unmanaged index comprising a broad range of insured New York
municipal bonds. Results for the Lehman index do not reflect any expenses.
4 The Lipper New York Insured Municipal Debt Funds average is calculated
using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for each period
as follows: 1 year, 12; 5 years, 7; and 10 years, 6. Fund and Lipper
returns assume reinvestment of dividends.
7
For the 12 months ended September 30, 2006, the total return on net asset value
(NAV) for all six funds covered in this report underperformed relative to the
return on the Lehman Brothers New York Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index. The
returns on all six of the insured New York Funds underperformed the average
return for the Lipper New York Insured peer group.
Factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period included yield
curve positioning and duration management, the use of financial leverage,
allocations to lower-rated credits (or credit risk) in NKO and NRK (which can
invest up to 20% of their assets in uninsured investment-grade quality
securities), and advance refunding activity.5
As longer rates declined and the yield curve flattened over the course of this
period, yield curve and duration positioning played an important role in the
performance of these Funds. Overall, bonds in the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond
Index with maturities between two and six years were the most adversely impacted
by changes in the interest rate environment over this period. As a result, these
bonds generally underperformed intermediate and longer bonds (those with
maturities of at least 12 years), with issues having the longest maturities (22
years and longer) achieving the best returns for the period. Even though these
Funds were underexposed to the longest part of the curve that performed well,
they held relatively fewer short bonds and a good allocation of intermediate
bonds. This overall positioning benefited their performances.
Another factor in the annual performance of these Funds, especially relative to
that of the unleveraged Lehman Brothers New York Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index,
was the use of financial leverage. While leveraging can add volatility to a
Fund's NAV and share price, this strategy can also provide opportunities for
additional income and total return for common shareholders. The Funds'
leveraging strategy positively impacted their results over this one year period,
although not to the same extent as in the past. Over the long term, we firmly
believe that the use of financial leverage should continue to work to the
benefit of these Funds. This is demonstrated by the five-year and ten-year
return performance--both absolute and relative to the Lehman Brothers New York
Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index--of NQN, NVN, NUN, and NNF.
With bonds rated BBB or lower and non-rated bonds generally outperforming other
credit quality sectors during this period, NKO and NRK benefited from their
allocations of lower-quality credits. The performance of this sector was largely
the result of investor demand for the higher yields typically associated with
lower-quality bonds, which drove up their value and tightened credit spreads. As
of September 30, 2006, bonds rated BBB accounted for 5% and 4% of the portfolios
of NKO and NRK, respectively. Among the
5 Advance refundings, also known as pre-refundings or refinancings, occur
when an issuer sells new bonds and uses the proceeds to fund principal and
interest payments of older existing bonds. This process often results in
lower borrowing costs for bond issuers.
8
lower-rated holdings making contributions to the returns of these two Funds for
the period were healthcare credits (including hospitals) and industrial
development bonds, which ranked as the top performing revenue sectors in the
Lehman municipal index. Bonds backed by the 1998 master tobacco settlement
agreement, which comprised between 2% and 3% of the portfolios of these two
Funds as of September 30, 2006, also contributed to the Funds' performances.
As noted earlier, we also continued to see positive contributions from advance
refunding activity, which benefited these Funds through price appreciation and
enhanced credit quality. While advance refundings generally enhanced performance
for this 12-month period, the Funds' holdings of older, previously pre-refunded
bonds tended to underperform the general municipal market, due primarily to
their shorter effective maturities. Differences in Fund structure also accounted
for some of the performance differentials during this period.
HOW WERE THE FUNDS POSITIONED IN TERMS OF CREDIT QUALITY AND BOND CALLS AS OF
SEPTEMBER 30, 2006?
Maintaining strong credit quality remained an important requirement for the
Funds. As of September 30, 2006, NQN, NVN, NUN, and NNF continued to be 100%
invested in insured and/or U.S. guaranteed securities. NKO and NRK, which can
invest up to 20% of their assets in uninsured investment-grade quality
securities, had allocated 90% and 89% of their portfolios, respectively, to
insured and/or U.S. guaranteed bonds.
As of September 30, 2006, potential call exposure for the period October 2006
through the end of 2008 ranged from 8% in NRK and 10% in NKO to 13% in NNF, 14%
in NVN, 15% in NUN, and 16% in NQN. The number of actual bond calls will depend
largely on future market interest rates.

Dividend and Share Price
INFORMATION
As previously noted, all of these Funds use leverage to potentially enhance
opportunities for additional income for common shareholders. During periods of
rising short-term interest rates, as was the case during this reporting period,
the Funds' borrowing costs also rise, reducing the extent of the benefits of
leveraging. The Funds' income streams were also impacted as the proceeds from
older, higher-yielding bonds that matured or were called were reinvested into
bonds currently available in the market, which generally offered lower yields.
These factors resulted in one monthly dividend reduction in NRK, two in NKO,
three in NVN, NUN, and NNF, and four in NQN over the 12-month period ended
September 30, 2006.
Due to capital gains generated by normal portfolio activity, common shareholders
of the Funds received capital gains and net ordinary income distributions at the
end of December 2005, as follows:
LONG-TERM CAPITAL GAINS ORDINARY INCOME
(PER SHARE) (PER SHARE)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NQN $0.5347 --
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NVN $0.2710 --
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NUN $0.2704 $0.0011
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NNF $0.3294 --
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NKO $0.1858 $0.0005
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NRK $0.0216 $0.0038
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These distributions, which represented an important part of the total returns of
these Funds for this period, were generated by bond calls and the sale of
appreciated securities. This had a slight negative impact on the Funds' earning
power per common share and was a minor factor in the common share dividend
reductions noted above.
All of the Funds in this report seek to pay stable dividends at rates that
reflect each Fund's past results and projected future performance. During
certain periods, each Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less
than the amount of net investment income actually earned by the Fund during the
period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it
holds the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as
part of the Fund's NAV. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid dividends in
excess of its earnings, the excess constitutes negative UNII that is likewise
reflected in the Fund's NAV. Each Fund will, over time, pay all of its net
investment income as dividends to shareholders. As of September 30, 2006, all of
the Funds in this report except NRK had positive UNII balances for both
financial statement and tax purposes. NRK had a positive UNII balance for tax
purposes and a negative UNII balance for financial statement purposes.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen New York Investment Quality Municipal
Fund, Inc., Nuveen New York Select Quality Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen New York
Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Insured New York Premium Income
Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Insured New York Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund
and Nuveen Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage Municipal Fund (the Funds) as of
September 30, 2006, and the related statements of operations for the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods
indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were
not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of September 30, 2006, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of
Nuveen New York Investment Quality Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen New York Select
Quality Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen New York Quality Income Municipal Fund,
Inc., Nuveen Insured New York Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen
Insured New York Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund and Nuveen Insured New York

two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
periods indicated therein in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The New York funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their corresponding
Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen New York Investment Quality
Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQN), Nuveen New York Select Quality Municipal Fund, Inc.
(NVN), Nuveen New York Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NUN), Nuveen Insured
New York Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NNF), Nuveen Insured New York
Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NKO) and Nuveen Insured New York Tax-Free
Advantage Municipal Fund (NRK). All of the Funds' Common shares trade on the New
York Stock Exchange, with the exception of Insured New York Dividend Advantage's
(NKO) Common shares and Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage's (NRK) Common
shares, which trade on the American Stock Exchange. The Funds are registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as closed-end management
investment companies.
Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and
New York state income taxes, and in the case of Insured New York Tax-Free
Advantage (NRK) the alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, by
investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations issued
by state and local government authorities within the state of New York or
certain U.S. territories.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Investment Valuation
The prices of municipal bonds in each Fund's investment portfolio are provided
by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees. When
market price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for
municipal securities), the pricing service establishes fair value based on
yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type of issue,
coupon, maturity and rating, indications of value from securities dealers,
evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral and general market
conditions. Prices of forward swap contracts are also provided by an independent
pricing service approved by each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees. If the
pricing service is unable to supply a price for a municipal bond or a forward
swap contract, each Fund may use a market price or fair market value quote
provided by a major broker/dealer in such investments. If it is determined that
the market price or fair market value for an investment is unavailable or
inappropriate, the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Funds, or its designee,
may establish a fair value for the investment. Temporary investments in
securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as
short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market
value.
Investment Transactions
Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from transactions are determined on the specific identification method.
Investments purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may have
extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market
fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to
segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the
when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At September 30, 2006,
Insured New York Dividend Advantage (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free
Advantage (NRK) had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase
commitments of $559,897 and $319,941, respectively. There were no such
outstanding purchase commitments in any of the other Funds.
Investment Income
Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis.
Investment income also includes paydown gains and losses, if any.
Income Taxes
Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund
intends to distribute substantially all net investment income and net capital
gains to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Furthermore,
each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and New York state
income taxes, and in the case of Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK) the
alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, to retain such tax-exempt
status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. All monthly tax-exempt
income dividends paid during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, have been
designated Exempt Interest Dividends. Net realized capital gains and ordinary
income distributions paid by the Funds are subject to federal taxation.
61
Notes to
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders
Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared monthly. Net
realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if
any, are distributed to shareholders not less frequently than annually.
Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed
available capital loss carryforwards.
Distributions to Common shareholders of tax-exempt net investment income, net
realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in
accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Preferred Shares
The Funds have issued and outstanding Preferred shares, $25,000 stated value per
share, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares
are issued in one or more Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each
Series is determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process
overseen by the auction agent, and is payable at the end of each rate period.
The number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each
Fund is as follows:

============================================================================================================
Insurance
New York Investment Quality (NQN), New York Select Quality (NVN), New York
Quality Income (NUN) and Insured New York Premium Income (NNF) invest only in
municipal securities which are either covered by insurance or are backed by an
escrow or trust account containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government
agency securities, both of which ensure the timely payment of principal and
interest.
Insured New York Dividend Advantage (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free
Advantage (NRK) invest at least 80% of their net assets (including net assets
attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities that are covered by
insurance. Each Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets (including net
assets attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities which are
either (i) backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or
U.S. Government agency securities, or (ii) rated, at the time of investment,
within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better by Moody's, S&P or Fitch)
or unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Adviser.
Each insured municipal security is covered by Original Issue Insurance,
Secondary Market Insurance or Portfolio Insurance. Such insurance does not
guarantee the market value of the municipal securities or the value of the
Funds' Common shares. Original Issue Insurance and Secondary Market Insurance
remain in effect as long as the municipal securities covered thereby remain
outstanding and the insurer remains in business, regardless of whether the Funds
ultimately dispose of such municipal securities. Consequently, the market value
of the municipal securities covered by Original Issue Insurance or Secondary
Market Insurance may reflect value attributable to the insurance. Portfolio
Insurance, in contrast, is effective only while the municipal securities are
held by the Funds. Accordingly, neither the prices used in determining the
market value of the underlying municipal securities nor the Common share net
asset value of the Funds include value, if any, attributable to the Portfolio
Insurance. Each policy of the Portfolio Insurance does, however, give the Funds
the right to obtain permanent insurance with respect to the municipal security
covered by the Portfolio Insurance policy at the time of its sale.
62
Forward Swap Transactions
The Funds are authorized to invest in certain derivative financial instruments.
The Funds' use of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to help
the Fund manage its overall interest rate sensitivity, either shorter or longer,
generally to more closely align the Fund's interest rate sensitivity with that
of the broader municipal market. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve
each Fund's agreement with a counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or
variable rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a
variable or fixed rate payment, the accruals for which would begin at a
specified date in the future (the "effective date"). The amount of the payment
obligation is based on the notional amount of the forward swap contract and the
termination date of the swap (which is akin to a bond's maturity). The value of
the Fund's swap commitment would increase or decrease based primarily on the
extent to which long-term interest rates for bonds having a maturity of the
swap's termination date increases or decreases. The Funds may terminate a swap
contract prior to the effective date, at which point a realized gain or loss is
recognized. When a forward swap is terminated, it ordinarily does not involve
the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal, but rather
is settled in cash on a net basis. Each Fund intends, but is not obligated, to
terminate its forward swaps before the effective date. Accordingly, the risk of
loss with respect to the swap counterparty on such transactions is limited to
the credit risk associated with a counterparty failing to honor its commitment
to pay any realized gain to the Fund upon termination. To reduce such credit
risk, all counterparties are required to pledge collateral daily (based on the
daily valuation of each swap) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately
equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold.
Reciprocally, when any of the Funds have an unrealized loss on a swap contract,
the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as
collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss
above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and
subsequently adjusted if and when the swap valuations fluctuate, either up or
down, by at least the predetermined threshold amount. At September 30, 2006, the
Funds did not have any forward swap contracts outstanding.
Custodian Fee Credit
Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian
fees and expenses are reduced by credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit
with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight
investments.
Indemnifications
Under the Funds' organizational documents, their Officers and Directors/Trustees
are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of
their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the
Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other
parties. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this
would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet
occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to
these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and
decreases in net assets applicable to Common shares from operations during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
2. FUND SHARES
None of the Funds engaged in transactions in their own shares during the fiscal
year ended September 30, 2006, nor during the fiscal year ended September 30,
2005.
3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales (including maturities but excluding short-term investments
and derivative transactions) during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006,
were as follows:

============================================================================================================
4. INCOME TAX INFORMATION
The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences
between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are
primarily due to the treatment of paydown gains and losses, timing differences
in recognizing taxable market discount and timing differences in recognizing
certain gains and losses on investment transactions. To the extent that
differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified
within the capital accounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities presented
in the annual report, based on their Federal tax basis treatment; temporary
differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences
do not impact the net asset values of the Funds.

the tax year ended September 30, 2006.
5. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a complex-level
component, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by Nuveen
Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen
Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), and a specific fund-level component, based only on
the amount of assets within each individual fund. This pricing structure enables
Nuveen fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within each
individual fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets
managed by the Adviser.
The annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is based upon the
average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares)
of each Fund as follows:
NEW YORK INVESTMENT QUALITY (NQN)
NEW YORK SELECT QUALITY (NVN)
AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS NEW YORK QUALITY INCOME (NUN)

For net assets over $2 billion .3750
================================================================================
The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the
fund-level fee, for all Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the
aggregate amount of total fund assets managed as stated in the table below. As
of September 30, 2006, the complex-level fee rate was .1857%.

For the next $5 billion .1200
For the next $5 billion .1175
For the next $15 billion .1150
For Managed Assets over $91 billion (2) .1400
================================================================================
(1) The complex-level fee component of the management fee for the funds is
calculated based upon the aggregate Managed Assets ("Managed Assets" means
the average daily net assets of each fund including assets attributable to
all types of leverage used by the Nuveen funds) of Nuveen-sponsored funds
in the U.S.
(2) With respect to the complex-wide Managed Assets over $91 billion, the fee
rate or rates that will apply to such assets will be determined at a later
date. In the unlikely event that complex-wide Managed Assets reach $91
billion prior to a determination of the complex-level fee rate or rates to
be applied to Managed Assets in excess of $91 billion, the complex-level
fee rate for such complex-wide Managed Assets shall be .1400% until such
time as a different rate or rates is determined.
The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and
administrative services and general office facilities. The Funds pay no
compensation directly to those of its Directors/Trustees who are affiliated with
the Adviser or to its Officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their
services to the Funds from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board of
Directors/Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent
Directors/Trustees that enables Directors/Trustees to elect to defer receipt of
all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from
certain Nuveen advised Funds. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as
though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select Nuveen advised
Funds.
For the first ten years of Insured New York Dividend Advantage's (NKO)
operations, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund, as a percentage of
average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred
shares), for fees and expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth

6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48
On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB
Interpretation No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN
48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized,
measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires
the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of
preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are
"more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax
positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be
recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is
required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied
to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, management is
evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and does not expect the adoption of FIN 48
will have a significant impact on the net assets or results of operations of the
Funds.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement on Financial Accounting Standards
No. 157 In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, "Fair Value
Measurements." This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of
fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires
additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to
fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards.
SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.
The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the
application of this standard relate to the definition of fair value, the methods
used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value
measurements. As of September 30, 2006, the Funds do not believe the adoption of
SFAS No. 157 will impact the financial statement amounts; however, additional
disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements
and the effect of certain of the measurements included within the Statement of
Operations for the period.

75
ANNUAL INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
APPROVAL PROCESS
The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the performance of the
investment adviser to the Funds and determining whether to continue the advisory
arrangements. At a meeting held on May 23-25, 2006 (the "May Meeting"), the
Board of Trustees of the Funds, including the independent Trustees, unanimously
approved the continuance of the Investment Management Agreement between each
Fund and NAM (the "Fund Adviser").
THE APPROVAL PROCESS
During the course of the year, the Board received a wide variety of materials
relating to the services provided by the Fund Adviser and the performance of
each Fund. To assist the Board in its evaluation of the advisory contract with
the Fund Adviser at the May Meeting, the independent Trustees received extensive
materials in advance of their meeting which outlined, among other things:
o the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Fund
Adviser;
o the organization and business operations of the Fund Adviser,
including the responsibilities of various departments and key
personnel;
o the Fund's past performance, the Fund's performance compared to funds
of similar investment objectives compiled by an independent third
party and to customized benchmarks;
o the profitability of the Fund Adviser and certain industry
profitability analyses for unaffiliated advisers;
o the expenses of the Fund Adviser in providing the various services;
o the advisory fees (gross and net management fees) and total expense
ratios of the Fund, including comparisons of such fees and expenses
with those of comparable, unaffiliated funds based on information and
data provided by Lipper (the "Peer Universe") as well as compared to a
subset of funds within the Peer Universe (the "Peer Group") to the
respective Fund (as applicable);
o the advisory fees the Fund Adviser assesses to other types of
investment products or clients;
o the soft dollar practices of the Fund Adviser, if any; and
o from independent legal counsel, a legal memorandum describing, among
other things, the duties of the Trustees under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as well as the general principles of
relevant state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts; the
requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; an adviser's fiduciary
duty with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the
standards used by courts in determining whether investment company
boards of directors have fulfilled their duties; and factors to be
considered by the Board in voting on advisory agreements.
At the May Meeting, the Fund Adviser made a presentation to and responded to
questions from the Board. After the presentations and after reviewing the
written materials, the independent Trustees met privately with their legal
counsel to review the Board's duties in reviewing advisory contracts and
consider the renewal of the advisory contracts. It is with this background that
the Trustees considered the advisory contract with the Fund Adviser. The
independent Trustees, in consultation with independent counsel, reviewed the
factors set out in judicial decisions and SEC directives relating to the renewal
of advisory contracts. As outlined in more detail below, the Trustees considered
all factors they believed relevant with respect to each Fund, including the
following: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by
the Fund Adviser; (b) the investment performance of the Fund and the Fund
Adviser; (c) the costs of the services to be provided and profitability of the
Fund Adviser and its affiliates; (d) the extent to which economies of scale
would be realized as the Fund grows; and (e) whether fee levels reflect these
economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.
A. NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In reviewing the Fund Adviser, the Trustees considered the nature, extent and
quality of the Fund Adviser's services. The Trustees reviewed materials
outlining, among other things, the Fund Adviser's organization and business; the
types of services that the Fund Adviser or its affiliates provide and are
expected to provide to the Funds; the performance record of the applicable Fund
(as described in further detail below); and any initiatives and enhancements
Nuveen has taken for its municipal fund product line. In connection with their
continued service as Trustees, the Trustees also have a good understanding of
the Fund Adviser's organization, operations and personnel. In this regard, the
Trustees are familiar with and have evaluated the professional experience,
qualifications and credentials of the Fund Adviser's personnel. The Trustees
further reviewed materials describing, among other things, the teams and
personnel
76
involved in the investment, research, risk-management and operational processes
involved in managing municipal funds and their respective functions. Given the
Trustees' experience with the Funds and Fund Adviser, the Trustees recognized
the demonstrated history of care and depth of experience of the respective
personnel in managing these Funds. In this regard, the Trustees considered the
continued quality of the Fund Adviser's investment process in making portfolio
management decisions as well as additional refinements and improvements adopted
to the portfolio management processes noted below. With respect to the services
provided to municipal funds, including the Funds, the Trustees noted that the
Fund Adviser continues to make refinements to its portfolio management process
including, among other things, the increased use of derivatives to enhance
management of risk, additional analytical software for research staff and
improved municipal pricing processes.
In addition to advisory services, the independent Trustees considered the
quality of any administrative or non-advisory services provided. The Fund
Adviser provides the Funds with such administrative and other services
(exclusive of, and in addition to, any such services provided by others for the
Funds) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of
the respective Fund. In connection with the review of the Investment Management
Agreement, the Trustees considered the extent and quality of these other
services which include, among other things, providing: product management (e.g.,
product positioning, performance benchmarking, risk management); fund
administration (e.g., daily net asset value pricing and reconciliation, tax
reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements); oversight of third party
service providers; administration of board relations (e.g., organizing board
meetings and preparing related materials); compliance (e.g., monitoring
compliance with investment policies and guidelines and regulatory requirements);
and legal support (e.g., helping prepare and file registration statements,
amendments thereto, proxy statements and responding to regulatory requests
and/or inquiries). As the Funds operate in a highly regulated industry and given
the importance of compliance, the Trustees considered, in particular, the
additions of experienced personnel to the compliance teams and the enhancements
to technology and related systems to support the compliance activities for the
Funds (including a new reporting system for quarterly portfolio holdings).
In addition to the foregoing, the Trustees also noted the additional services
that the Fund Adviser or its affiliates provide to closed-end funds, including,
in particular, secondary market support activities. The Trustees recognized
Nuveen's continued commitment to supporting the secondary market for the common
shares of its closed-end funds through a variety of initiatives designed to
raise investor and analyst awareness and understanding of closed-end funds.
These efforts include providing advertising and other media relations programs,
continued contact with analysts, maintaining and enhancing its website for
closed-end funds, and targeted advisor communication programs. With respect to
funds that utilize leverage through the issuance of preferred shares, the
Trustees noted Nuveen's continued support for the preferred shares by
maintaining, among other things, an in-house preferred trading desk; designating
a product manager whose responsibilities include creating and disseminating
product information and managing relations in connection with the preferred
share auction; and maintaining systems necessary to test compliance with rating
agency requirements.
Based on their review, the Trustees found that, overall, the nature, extent and
quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the respective
Funds under the Investment Management Agreement were of a high level and were
satisfactory.
B. THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND AND FUND ADVISER
The Board considered the investment performance for each Fund, including the
Fund's historic performance as well as its performance compared to funds with
similar investment objectives identified by an independent third party (the
"Performance Peer Group") and portfolio level performance against customized
benchmarks, as described below. In evaluating the performance information, in
certain instances, the Trustees noted that the closest Performance Peer Group
for a Fund still may not adequately reflect such Fund's investment objectives,
strategies and portfolio duration, thereby limiting the usefulness of the
comparisons of such Fund's performance with that of the Performance Peer Group.
With respect to state specific municipal funds, the Trustees recognized that
certain state municipal funds do not have a corresponding state specific
Performance Peer Group in which case their performance is measured against a
more general municipal category for various states. The closed-end state
municipal funds that do not have corresponding state-specific Performance Peer
Groups are from Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia. Further, due to a lack of
state-specific unleveraged categories, certain unleveraged state municipal funds
are included in their leveraged state category (such as, the Nuveen California
Select Tax-Free Income Fund, Nuveen California Municipal Value Fund, Nuveen New
York Select Tax-Free Income Fund and Nuveen New York Municipal Value Fund).
In reviewing performance, the Trustees reviewed performance information
including, among other things, total return information compared with the Fund's
Performance Peer Group for the one-, three- and five-year periods (as
applicable) ending December 31, 2005. The Trustees also reviewed the Fund's
portfolio level performance (which does not reflect fund level fees and
expenses) compared to customized portfolio-level benchmarks for the one- and
three-year periods ending December 31, 2005 (as applicable). This analysis is
designed to assess the efficacy of investment decisions against appropriate
measures of risk and total return, within specific market segments. This
information supplements the Fund performance information provided to the Board
at each of their quarterly meetings. Based on their review, the Trustees
determined that the respective Fund's absolute and relative investment
performance over time had been satisfactory.
C. FEES, EXPENSES AND PROFITABILITY
1. FEES AND EXPENSES
In evaluating the management fees and expenses of a Fund, the Board
reviewed, among other things, the Fund's advisory fees (net and gross
management fees) and total expense ratios (before and after expense
reimbursements and/or waivers) in absolute terms as well as comparisons to
the gross management fees (before waivers), net management fees (after
waivers) and total expense ratios (before and after waivers) of comparable
funds in the Peer Universe and the Peer Group. The Trustees reviewed data
regarding the construction of Peer Groups as well as the methods of
measurement for the fee and expense analysis and the performance analysis.
In certain cases, due to the small number of peers in the Peer Universe,
the Peer Universe and Peer Group may be the same. Further, the Trustees
recognized that in certain cases the closest Peer Universe and/or Peer
Group did not
77
ANNUAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENT APPROVAL PROCESS (continued)
adequately reflect the Fund's investment objectives and strategies limiting
the usefulness of comparisons. In reviewing comparisons, the Trustees also
considered the size of the Peer Universe and/or Peer Group, the composition
of the Peer Group (including differences in the use of leverage and
insurance) as well as differing levels of fee waivers and/or expense
reimbursements. In this regard, the Trustees considered the fund-level and
complex-wide breakpoint schedules (described in further detail below) and
any fee waivers and reimbursements provided by Nuveen (applicable, in
particular, for certain funds launched since 1999). Based on their review
of the fee and expense information provided, the Trustees determined that
each Fund's net total expense ratio was within an acceptable range compared
to peers.
2. COMPARISONS WITH THE FEES OF OTHER CLIENTS
The Trustees further reviewed data comparing the advisory fees of the Fund
Adviser with fees the Fund Adviser charges to other clients, including
municipal managed accounts. In general, the fees charged for separate
accounts are somewhat lower than the fees assessed to the Funds. The
Trustees recognized that the differences in fees are attributable to a
variety of factors, including the differences in services provided, product
distribution, portfolio investment policies, investor profiles, account
sizes and regulatory requirements. The Trustees noted, in particular, that
the range of services provided to the Funds is more extensive than that
provided to managed separate accounts. As described in further detail
above, such additional services include, but are not limited to, providing:
product management, fund administration, oversight of third party service
providers, administration of board relations, and legal support. Funds
further operate in a highly regulated industry requiring extensive
compliance functions compared to the other investment products. In addition
to the costs of the additional services, administrative costs may also be
greater for funds as the average account size for separate accounts is
notably larger than the retail accounts of funds. Given the differences in
the product structures, particularly the extensive services provided to
closed-end municipal funds, the Trustees believe such facts justify the
different levels of fees.
3. PROFITABILITY OF FUND ADVISER
In conjunction with its review of fees, the Trustees also considered the
profitability of Nuveen Investments for advisory activities (which
incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated sub-advisers). The Trustees
reviewed data comparing Nuveen's profitability with other fund sponsors
prepared by three independent third party service providers as well as
comparisons of the revenues, expenses and profits margins of various
unaffiliated management firms with similar amounts of assets under
management prepared by Nuveen. The Trustees further reviewed the 2005
Annual Report for Nuveen Investments. In considering profitability, the
Trustees recognized the inherent limitations in determining profitability
as well as the difficulties in comparing the profitability of other
unaffiliated advisers. Profitability may be affected by numerous factors,
including the methodology for allocating expenses, the adviser's business
mix, the types of funds managed, the adviser's capital structure and cost
of capital. Further, individual fund or product line profitability of other
sponsors is generally not publicly available. Accordingly, the
profitability information that is publicly available from various
investment advisory or management firms may not be representative of the
industry.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in reviewing profitability, the Trustees reviewed
Nuveen's methodology and assumptions for allocating expenses across product
lines to determine profitability. In this regard, the methods of allocation used
appeared reasonable. The Trustees also, to the extent available, compared
Nuveen's profitability margins (including pre- and post-marketing profit
margins) with the profitability of various unaffiliated management firms. The
Trustees noted that Nuveen's profitability is enhanced due to its efficient
internal business model. The Trustees also recognized that while a number of
factors affect profitability, Nuveen's profitability may change as fee waivers
and/or expense reimbursement commitments of Nuveen to various funds in the
Nuveen complex expire. To keep apprised of profitability and developments that
may affect profitability, the Trustees have requested profitability analysis be
provided periodically during the year. Based on their review, the Trustees were
satisfied that the Fund Adviser's level of profitability was reasonable in light
of the services provided.
In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Trustees also
considered any other revenues paid to the Fund Adviser as well as any indirect
benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements, if any) the Fund Adviser and its
affiliates are expected to receive that are directly attributable to their
management of the Funds, if any. See Section E below for additional information.
Based on their review of the overall fee arrangements of the applicable Fund,
the Trustees determined that the advisory fees and expenses of the respective
Fund were reasonable.
78
D. ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THESE ECONOMIES OF SCALE
With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees recognized the potential
benefits resulting from the costs of a fund being spread over a larger asset
base as a fund grows. To help ensure the shareholders share in these benefits,
the Trustees have reviewed and considered the breakpoints in the advisory fee
schedules that reduce advisory fees as the applicable Fund's assets grow. In
addition to advisory fee breakpoints as assets in a respective Fund rise, after
lengthy discussions with management, the Board also approved a complex-wide fee
arrangement that was introduced on August 1, 2004. Pursuant to the complex-wide
fee arrangement, the fees of the funds in the Nuveen complex, including the
Funds, are reduced as the assets in the fund complex reach certain levels. In
evaluating the complex-wide fee arrangement, the Trustees considered, among
other things, the historic and expected fee savings to shareholders as assets
grow, the amount of fee reductions at various asset levels, and that the
arrangement would extend to all funds in the Nuveen complex. The Trustees noted
that 2005 was the first full year to reflect the fee reductions from the complex
wide fee arrangement. The Trustees also considered the impact, if any, the
complex-wide fee arrangement may have on the level of services provided. Based
on their review, the Trustees concluded that the breakpoint schedule and
complex-wide fee arrangement currently was acceptable and desirable in providing
benefits from economies of scale to shareholders.
E. INDIRECT BENEFITS
In evaluating fees, the Trustees also considered any indirect benefits or
profits the Fund Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of its
relationship with each Fund. In this regard, the Trustees considered revenues
received by affiliates of the Fund Adviser for serving as agent at Nuveen's
preferred trading desk and for serving as a co-manager in the initial public
offering of new closed-end exchange traded funds.
In addition to the above, the Trustees considered whether the Fund Adviser
received any benefits from soft dollar arrangements. With respect to NAM, the
Trustees noted that NAM does not currently have any soft dollar arrangements and
does not pay excess brokerage commissions (or spreads on principal transactions)
in order to receive research services; however, the Fund Adviser may from time
to time receive and have access to research generally provided to institutional
clients.
The Trustees did not identify any single factor discussed previously as
all-important or controlling. The Trustees, including a majority of independent
Trustees, concluded that the terms of the Investment Management Agreements were
fair and reasonable, that the Fund Adviser's fees are reasonable in light of the
services provided to each Fund, and that the renewal of the Investment
Management Agreements should be approved.

Reinvest Automatically
EASILY AND CONVENIENTLY
Sidebar text: NUVEEN MAKES REINVESTING EASY. A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET
UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT.
NUVEEN CLOSED-END FUNDS
DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
Your Nuveen Closed-End Fund allows you to conveniently reinvest dividends and/or
capital gains distributions in additional fund shares.
By choosing to reinvest, you'll be able to invest money regularly and
automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power of tax-free
compounding. Just like dividends or distributions in cash, there may be times
when income or capital gains taxes may be payable on dividends or distributions
that are reinvested.
It is important to note that an automatic reinvestment plan does not ensure a
profit, nor does it protect you against loss in a declining market.
EASY AND CONVENIENT
To make recordkeeping easy and convenient, each month you'll receive a statement
showing your total dividends and distributions, the date of investment, the
shares acquired and the price per share, and the total number of shares you own.
HOW SHARES ARE PURCHASED
The shares you acquire by reinvesting will either be purchased on the open
market or newly issued by the Fund. If the shares are trading at or above net
asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at the
then-current market price. If the shares are trading at less than net asset
value, shares for your account will be purchased on the open market. Dividends
and distributions received to purchase shares in the open market will normally
be invested shortly after the dividend payment date. No interest will be paid on
dividends and distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the market price of
the shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase
price per share may exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting
in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or distribution had been
paid in shares issued by the Fund. A pro rata portion of any applicable
brokerage commissions on open market purchases will be paid by Plan
participants. These commissions usually will be lower than those charged on
individual transactions.
FLEXIBLE
You may change your distribution option or withdraw from the Plan at any time,
should your needs or situation change. Should you withdraw, you can receive a
certificate for all whole shares credited to your reinvestment account and cash
payment for fractional shares, or cash payment for all reinvestment account
shares, less brokerage commissions and a $2.50 service fee.
You can reinvest whether your shares are registered in your name, or in the name
of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Ask your investment advisor if his
or her firm will participate on your behalf. Participants whose shares are
registered in the name of one firm may not be able to transfer the shares to
another firm and continue to participate in the Plan.
The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Although
the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge
payable by the participants, there is no direct service charge to participants
in the Plan at this time.

Automatic Dividend
REINVESTMENT PLAN
NOTICE OF AMENDMENT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
These Funds are amending the terms and conditions of their Automatic Dividend
Reinvestment Plan (the "Plan") as further described below effective with the
close of business on January 2, 2007. THESE CHANGES ARE INTENDED TO ENABLE PLAN
PARTICIPANTS UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES TO REINVEST FUND DISTRIBUTIONS AT A
LOWER AGGREGATE COST THAN IS POSSIBLE UNDER THE EXISTING PLAN. Shareholders who
do not wish to continue as participants under the amended Plan may withdraw from
the Plan by notifying the Plan Agent prior to the effective date of the
amendments. Participants should refer to their Plan document for notification
instructions, or may simply call Nuveen at (800) 257-8787.
Fund shareholders who elect to participate in the Plan are able to have Fund
distributions consisting of income dividends, realized capital gains and returns
of capital automatically reinvested in additional Fund shares. Under the Plan's
existing terms, the Plan Agent purchases Fund shares in the open market if the
Fund's shares are trading at a discount to their net asset value on the payable
date for the distribution. If the Fund's shares are trading at or above their
net asset value on the payable date for the distribution, the Plan Agent
purchases newly-issued Fund shares directly from the Fund at a price equal to
the greater of the shares' net asset value or 95% of the shares' market value.
Under the Plan's amended terms, if the Plan Agent begins purchasing Fund shares
on the open market while shares are trading below net asset value, but the
Fund's shares subsequently trade at or above their net asset value before the
Plan Agent is able to complete its purchases, the Plan Agent may cease
open-market purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the distribution
in newly-issued Fund shares at a price equal to the greater of the shares' net
asset value or 95% of the shares' market value. This change will permit Plan
participants under these circumstances to reinvest Fund distributions at a lower
aggregate cost than is possible under the existing Plan.

CEO CERTIFICATION DISCLOSURE
Each Fund's Chief Executive Officer has submitted to the New York Stock Exchange
the annual CEO certification as required by Section 303A.12(a) of the NYSE
Listed Company Manual.
Each Fund has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission the
certification of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURN: This is a commonly used method to express an
investment's performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It
expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the
investment's actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or market
price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the
time period being considered.
AVERAGE EFFECTIVE MATURITY: The average of all the maturities of the bonds in a
Fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each maturity date (the date the
security comes due) by the market value of the security. This figure does not
account for the likelihood of prepayments or the exercise of call provisions.
LEVERAGE-ADJUSTED DURATION: Duration is a measure of the expected period over
which a bond's principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a
measure of the sensitivity of a bond's or bond Fund's value to changes when
market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond's or Fund's duration,
the more the price of the bond or Fund will change as interest rates change.
Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund
and therefore is longer than the duration of the Fund's portfolio of bonds.
MARKET YIELD (ALSO KNOWN AS DIVIDEND YIELD OR CURRENT YIELD): An investment's
current annualized dividend divided by its current market price.
MODIFIED DURATION: Duration is a measure of the expected period over which a
bond's principal and interest will be paid and consequently is a measure of the
sensitivity of a bond's or bond Fund's value to changes when market interest
rates change. Generally, the longer a bond's or Fund's duration, the more the
price of the bond or Fund will change as interest rates change.
NET ASSET VALUE (NAV): A Fund's common share NAV per share is calculated by
subtracting the liabilities of the Fund (including any MuniPreferred shares
issued in order to leverage the Fund) from its total assets and then dividing
the remainder by the number of shares outstanding. Fund NAVs are calculated at
the end of each business day.
TAXABLE-EQUIVALENT YIELD: The yield necessary from a fully taxable investment to
equal, on an after-tax basis, the yield of a municipal bond investment.

ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.
The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees determined that the registrant
has at least one "audit committee financial expert" (as defined in Item 3 of
Form N-CSR) serving on its Audit Committee. The registrant's audit committee
financial expert is Jack B. Evans, Chairman of the Audit Committee, who is
"independent" for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Mr. Evans was formerly President and Chief Operating Officer of SCI Financial
Group, Inc., a full service registered broker-dealer and registered investment
adviser ("SCI"). As part of his role as President and Chief Operating Officer,
Mr. Evans actively supervised the Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO") and
actively supervised the CFO's preparation of financial statements and other
filings with various regulatory authorities. In such capacity, Mr. Evans was
actively involved in the preparation of SCI's financial statements and the
resolution of issues raised in connection therewith. Mr. Evans has also served
on the audit committee of various reporting companies. At such companies, Mr.
Evans was involved in the oversight of audits, audit plans, and the preparation
of financial statements. Mr. Evans also formerly chaired the audit committee of
the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.
ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.
Nuveen Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage Municipal Fund
The following tables show the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP, the Fund's
auditor, billed to the Fund during the Fund's last two full fiscal years. For
engagements with Ernst & Young LLP the Audit Committee approved in advance all
audit services and non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provided to the
Fund, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval
exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the "pre-approval exception"). The
pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Fund waives the
pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest
services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes
no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its
accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the
Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the
engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's
attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the
audit is completed.
The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its
Chairman (or, in his absence, any other member of the Audit Committee).

during the Fund's last two full fiscal years.

represents amounts billed to the Adviser exclusively for the preparation
for the Fund's tax return, the cost of which is borne by the Adviser. In
the aggregate, for all Nuveen funds for which Ernst & Young LLP serves as

The following table shows the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP billed
during the Fund's last two full fiscal years for non-audit services. The Audit
Committee is required to pre-approve non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP
provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Services Provider, if the
engagement related directly to the Fund's operations and financial reporting
(except for those subject to the de minimis exception described above). The
Audit Committee requested and received information from Ernst & Young LLP about
any non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP rendered during the Fund's last
fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The
Committee considered this information in evaluating Ernst & Young LLP's
independence.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. Generally, the Audit
Committee must approve (i) all non-audit services to be performed for the Fund
by the Fund's independent accountants and (ii) all audit and non-audit services
to be performed by the Fund's independent accountants for the Affiliated Fund
Service Providers with respect to operations and financial reporting of the
Fund. Regarding tax and research projects conducted by the independent
accountants for the Fund and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (with respect to
operations and financial reports of the Fund) such engagements will be (i)
pre-approved by the Audit Committee if they are expected to be for amounts
greater than $10,000; (ii) reported to the Audit Committee chairman for his
verbal approval prior to engagement if they are expected to be for amounts under
$10,000 but greater than $5,000; and (iii) reported to the Audit Committee at

$5,000.
ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANTS.

Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(58)(A)). The
members of the audit committee are Robert P. Bremner, Lawrence H. Brown, Jack B.
Evans, William J. Schneider and Eugene S. Sunshine.
ITEM 6. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS.
See Portfolio of Investments in Item 1.
ITEM 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END
MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.
The registrant invests its assets primarily in municipal bonds and cash
management securities. On rare occasions the registrant may acquire, directly or
through a special purpose vehicle, equity securities of a municipal bond issuer
whose bonds the registrant already owns when such bonds have deteriorated or are
expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality. The purpose of
acquiring equity securities generally will be to acquire control of the
municipal bond issuer and to seek to prevent the credit deterioration or
facilitate the liquidation or other workout of the distressed issuer's credit
problem. In the course of exercising control of a distressed municipal issuer,
NAM may pursue the registrant's interests in a variety of ways, which may entail
negotiating and executing consents, agreements and other arrangements, and
otherwise influencing the management of the issuer. NAM does not consider such
activities proxy voting for purposes of Rule 206(4)-6 under the 1940 Act, but
nevertheless provides reports to the registrant's Board of Trustees on its
control activities on a quarterly basis.
In the rare event that a municipal issuer were to issue a proxy or that the
registrant were to receive a proxy issued by a cash management security, NAM
would either engage an independent third party to determine how the proxy should
be voted or vote the proxy with the consent, or based on the instructions, of
the registrant's Board of Trustees or its representative. A member of NAM's
legal department would oversee the administration of the voting, and ensure that
records were maintained in accordance with Rule 206(4)-6, reports were filed
with the SEC on Form N-PX, and the results provided to the registrant's Board of
Trustees and made available to shareholders as required by applicable rules.
ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.
THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The following individual has primary responsibility for the day-to-day
implementation of the registrant's investment strategies:
NAME FUND
Cathryn Steeves Nuveen Insured New York Tax Free Advantage Municipal Fund
Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the registrant, the portfolio
manager is also primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of
the following accounts:
NUMBER OF
PORTFOLIO MANAGER TYPE OF ACCOUNT MANAGED ACCOUNTS ASSETS*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cathryn Steeves Registered Investment Company 67 $13.52 billion
Other Pooled Investment Vehicles 0 $0
Other Accounts 0 $0
* Assets are as of September 30, 2006. None of the assets in these accounts
are subject to an advisory fee based on performance.
Compensation. Each portfolio manager's compensation consists of three basic
elements--base salary, cash bonus and long-term incentive compensation. The
compensation strategy is to annually compare overall compensation, including
these three elements, to the market in order to create a compensation structure
that is competitive and consistent with similar financial services companies. As
discussed below, several factors are considered in determining each portfolio
manager's total compensation. In any year these factors may include, among
others, the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended by the
portfolio manager's investment team, the investment performance of the accounts
managed by the portfolio manager, and the overall performance of Nuveen
Investments, Inc. (the parent company of NAM). Although investment performance
is a factor in determining the portfolio manager's compensation, it is not
necessarily a decisive factor. The portfolio manager's performance is evaluated
in part by comparing manager's performance against a specified investment
benchmark. This fund-specific benchmark is a customized subset (limited to bonds
in each Fund's specific state and with certain maturity parameters) of the
S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index, an index comprised of bonds held by
managed municipal bond fund customers of Standard & Poor's Securities Pricing,
Inc. that are priced daily and whose fund holdings aggregate at least $2
million. As of August 30, 2006, the S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index was
comprised of 47,346 securities with an aggregate current market value of $879
billion.
Base salary. Each portfolio manager is paid a base salary that is set at a level
determined by NAM in accordance with its overall compensation strategy discussed
above. NAM is not under any current contractual obligation to increase a
portfolio manager's base salary.
Cash bonus. Each portfolio manager is also eligible to receive an annual cash
bonus. The level of this bonus is based upon evaluations and determinations made
by each portfolio manager's supervisors, along with reviews submitted by his
peers. These reviews and evaluations often take into account a number of
factors, including the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended to
the NAM's investment team, the performance of the accounts for which he/she
serves as portfolio manager relative to any benchmarks established for those
accounts, his/her effectiveness in communicating investment performance to
stockholders and their representatives, and his/her contribution to the NAM
investment process and to the execution of investment strategies. The cash bonus
component is also impacted by the overall performance of Nuveen Investments,
Inc. in achieving its business objectives.
Long-term incentive compensation. Each portfolio manager is eligible to receive
bonus compensation in the form of equity-based awards issued in securities
issued by Nuveen Investments, Inc. The amount of such compensation is dependent
upon the same factors articulated for cash bonus awards but also factors in his
long-term potential with the firm.
Material Conflicts of Interest. Each portfolio manager's simultaneous
management of the registrant and the other accounts noted above may present
actual or apparent conflicts of interest with respect to the allocation and
aggregation of securities orders placed on behalf of the Registrant and the
other account. NAM, however, believes that such potential conflicts are
mitigated by the fact that the NAM has adopted several policies that address
potential conflicts of interest, including best execution and trade allocation
policies that are designed to ensure (1) that portfolio management is seeking
the best price for portfolio securities under the circumstances, (2) fair and
equitable allocation of investment opportunities among accounts over time and
(3) compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. All accounts are to be
treated in a non-preferential manner, such that allocations are not based upon
account performance, fee structure or preference of the portfolio manager. In
addition, NAM has adopted a Code of Conduct that sets forth policies regarding
conflicts of interest.
Beneficial Ownership of Securities. As of the September 30, 2006, the portfolio
manager beneficially owned the following dollar range of equity securities
issued by the Registrant and other Nuveen Funds managed by NAM's municipal
investment team.
