PERSPECTIVE
Portfolio manager Paul Brennan discusses the market environment, key investment
strategies and the performance of these six Nuveen New York Funds. With 13 years
of investment experience, including seven at Nuveen, Paul has managed NQN, NVN,
NUN and NNF since 1999, and NKO and NRK since their inceptions in 2002.
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE ANNUAL
REPORTING PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2004?
During this 12-month period, the U.S. economy demonstrated improvement in a
number of key areas, although the pace of recovery slowed somewhat toward the
end of the fiscal year. Economic growth, as measured by the gross domestic
product (GDP), expanded at annualized rates of 4.2% in the fourth quarter of
2003 and 4.5% in the first quarter of 2004. During the second quarter of 2004,
however, rising energy prices restrained consumer spending and negatively
impacted economic momentum. GDP growth for the second quarter moderated to 3.3%
annualized. As we moved into the third quarter, job growth and consumer
confidence continued to lag while oil prices remained high.
The higher energy costs of the second half of this fiscal year were also
responsible for some renewed speculation about a potential pick-up in inflation.
Although monthly gains in consumer prices were relatively tame, the Consumer
Price Index rose at an annualized rate of 3.5% for the first nine months of
2004, compared with 1.9% for all of 2003. Beginning in the spring of 2004,
inflation concerns, the slowing pace of economic recovery, and continued
geopolitical uncertainty acted as catalysts for heightened volatility in the
fixed-income markets.
As one example, the yield on the Bond Buyer 25 Revenue Bond Index (BB25), a
widely followed municipal bond index, stood at 5.20% when this reporting period
began on October 1, 2003. The BB25 yield then dropped steadily over the next six
months to 4.73% by mid-March 2004. As a series of improved employment reports
sparked increased anticipation that the Federal Reserve might move to raise
short-term interest rates, the index yield began to climb, rising more than 80
basis points over the next 12 weeks to 5.45%. By the end of September 2004, more
bond-friendly news--including indications of slower economic growth and
relatively benign inflation--had prompted a retreat to 5.02%.
While intermediate and long-term interest rates were moving up and then down,
short-term rates rose. The Federal Reserve introduced three one-quarter-point
increases in the fed funds rate between June and September 2004, raising the
target rate by a total of 75
4
basis points to 1.75%. As a result, we saw some flattening of the yield curve.
The Fed continued to note that it anticipated taking a "measured" approach to
further tightening as a way to promote a sustainable recovery without increasing
inflationary pressures.
During this 12-month reporting period, municipal bond supply nationwide remained
relatively strong, although the $361.8 billion in new bonds that came to market
represented a decrease of about 9% from the preceding 12-month period. In
contrast to much of 2003, when many states were issuing bonds to bridge budget
gaps and fund operations, an improving (albeit slow-growing) economy and higher
tax revenues lessened many issuers' need to borrow. In September 2004 alone,
national new issue supply was off 24% from the previous year.
HOW ABOUT ECONOMIC AND MARKET CONDITIONS IN NEW YORK?
Over the 12-month period, New York continued to recover from the general
economic slowdown that affected the entire nation in the wake of September 11,
2001. The jobless rate in New York dropped significantly over the fiscal year,
from 6.4% in September 2003 to 5.5% in September 2004. This was the lowest it
had been since August 2001, and was generally in line with the national average
of 5.4%.
Overall, strong job growth in the construction, tourism and business services
sectors more than offset continued losses in the manufacturing sector. While New
York, along with many other states, has grappled with budgetary pressures over
the past few years, the state ended fiscal 2004 on March 31 with a general fund
surplus. In New York City, the employment picture also improved substantially,
as the jobless rate dropped from 8.4% in September 2003 to 6.9% in September
2004. At the close of fiscal 2004, the city announced that tax revenues for the
year had exceeded projections, with initial reports indicating a surplus in
excess of $1 billion.
From October 2003 through September 2004, issuers in New York brought $36.7
billion in new municipal bonds to market, down 13% from the previous 12 months.
In general, New York supply was tighter during the second half of the fiscal
year, with $13.7 billion in new bonds coming to market between April and
September 2004, a decrease of 40% from the previous six months.
For the fiscal year, Moody's maintained its A2 rating for New York state and, in
September 2004, placed the state on its watch list for a possible upgrade based
on improving liquidity. Also in September, Standard & Poor's reconfirmed its AA
state rating and revised its outlook to stable from negative, citing
improvements in the state's econ-
5
omy. As of September 2004, Moody's rated New York City A2, while S&P had
assigned an A rating. Moody's and S&P both turned their outlooks for the city to
stable from negative during 2003.
IN THIS ENVIRONMENT, WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE NUVEEN NEW YORK
FUNDS DURING THE 12 MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2004?
As the market continued to anticipate increased interest rates, our major
emphasis during this fiscal year centered on purchasing bonds with maturities
that provided what we thought was the best total return potential, and on
aligning the Funds to have more equivalent interest rate risk. Interest rate
risk is the risk that the value of a Fund's portfolio will decline if market
interest rates rise (since bond prices move in the opposite direction of
interest rates). Our purchase activity focused primarily on attractive
securities in the intermediate part of the yield curve (i.e., bonds that mature
in 10 to 20 years). In many cases, bonds in this part of the curve offered
yields similar to those of longer-term bonds with less inherent interest rate
risk and, we believed, greater total return prospects.
To accommodate these purchases, we sold bonds with longer or shorter effective
maturities than this intermediate, 10-20 year range. These sell decisions
depended on several factors, including the individual Fund's income stream and
duration.1 One of our goals, over time, has been to bring the effective
maturities and durations of these Funds more closely in line with those of the
general New York market. We think this positioning should help the Funds to
produce more consistent returns over time.
We balanced our desire to position the Funds effectively with the desire to
trade only when we believed we could add value. As noted, municipal supply in
New York declined over the fiscal year, and new bonds became even more scarce in
the second half of the period. In addition, many of the issues that did come to
market were smaller than in the past, affording fewer opportunities to make
sizable purchases. As a result, turnover in each Fund's portfolio was relatively
low over the 12-month period. The tight supply also led to our purchasing many
of the same bonds for each of the four Funds--NQN, NVN, NUN and NNF--that can
only purchase insured bonds.
Although we sought to take advantage of the ability of NKO and NRK to invest up
to 20% of their portfolios in uninsured investment-grade quality securities by
buying A and BBB rated bonds, most of our purchases for these two Funds during
this period were rated AAA and AA. This reflected a relatively limited supply of
attractive, lower-rated securities. However, we were able to maintain holdings
of BBB credits in both Funds at about 5% as of September 30, 2004.
1 Duration is a measure of a bond's or a Fund's net asset value (NAV)
sensitivity to changes in interest rates. In this report, duration refers
to the Fund's modified duration, prior to any adjustment for leverage.
Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a
Fund and therefore results in a generally longer duration than the modified
duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the Fund.
References to duration in this commentary are not leverage adjusted unless
otherwise noted.
6
Among the additions we made to all six of the Funds during this period were New
York City general obligation bonds (GOs). In general, we believed the city's
credit profile had stabilized, and we took advantage of several of the larger
issues that came to market during this period to increase our exposure, adding A
rated New York GOs to NKO and NRK and insured New York GOs to NQN, NVN, NUN and
NNF. There was a supply/demand imbalance that drove up the prices of uninsured
New York bonds relative to those issued in other states, and New York City's
improving credit picture also caused the city GOs to perform well over the
course of the fiscal year.

For the 12 months ended September 30, 2004, the total returns on net asset value
(NAV) for all six Funds in this report outperformed the return on the Lehman
Brothers index. NQN, NVN, NKO and NRK also outperformed the average return for
the Lipper New York Insured peer group for this period, while NUN and NNF
slightly underperformed this measure.
2 The Lehman Brothers New York Tax-Exempt Bond Index is an unleveraged,
unmanaged index comprising a broad range of insured New York municipal
bonds. Results for the Lehman index do not reflect any expenses.
3 The Lipper New York Insured Municipal Debt Funds category average is
calculated using the returns of all closed-end exchange-traded funds in
this category for each period as follows: 1 year, 13 funds; 5 years, 7
funds; and 10 years, 6 funds. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment
of dividends.
7
One of the primary factors benefiting the 12-month performances of these six
Funds relative to that of the unleveraged Lehman index was their use of
leverage. While leveraging can add volatility to the Funds' NAVs and share
prices, especially when substantial shifts in interest rates occur, this
strategy can also provide opportunities for additional income and total returns
for common shareholders when short-term interest rates remain low and long-term
rates are steady or falling.
NKO and NRK, also benefited from their 5% allocations of BBB bonds, a relatively
large allocation for an insured fund. Lower-rated bonds generally outperformed
higher-quality sectors as the economy improved. Among the lower-rated credits
making positive contributions to the total returns of NKO and NRK during this
period were those issued in the healthcare sector, especially hospital bonds. As
of September 30, 2004, exposure to the healthcare sector was 16% in NKO and 14%
in NRK. The remaining four Funds also benefited from their weightings of
healthcare bonds--15% in NQN, 12% in NVN, 9% in NUN, and 13% in NNF--as the
performance of the healthcare sector as a whole ranked second among the Lehman
Brothers index revenue sectors for the year. However, as it was primarily
lower-rated healthcare bonds that were responsible for the sector's outstanding
performance, the four 100% insured Funds were unable to benefit to the same
extent as NKO and NRK.
The returns of NKO and NRK also were boosted by the strong performance of their
holdings of uninsured bonds backed by the 1998 master tobacco settlement
agreement. Over this period, the two Funds maintained exposures of 6% to tobacco
bonds.
In general, the majority of the performance differential relative to peers among
the other four 100% insured Funds was due to specific security and sector
situations. NVN, for example, had a considerable number of advance refundings,
including some of its New York City holdings, which benefited the Fund through
price appreciation. NNF, on the other hand, had a significant number of bond
calls over this period. Bonds with short effective maturities, such as those
about to be called, generally do not perform as well as longer-maturity bonds in
periods of generally favorable market conditions like much of the past year.
HOW ABOUT THE FUNDS' DIVIDENDS AND SHARE PRICES?
With short-term interest rates remaining at or near historically low levels
throughout this reporting period, the leveraged structures of these Funds
continued to support their dividend-paying capabilities. The extent of this
benefit is tied in part to the short-term rates these leveraged Funds pay their
MuniPreferred, shareholders. During periods of low short-term rates, the Funds
generally pay relatively lower dividends to their
8
MuniPreferred shareholders, which can leave more earnings to support common
share dividends. During this reporting period, this strategy helped to maintain
the dividends of NQN, NVN, NUN, NNF and NKO throughout the period. In addition,
common shareholders of NQN, NVN, NUN and NKO received substantial capital gains
and net ordinary income distributions of $0.4154, $0.2745, $0.2570 and $0.1154
per share, respectively, at the end of December 2003. However, given the low
interest rate environment since NRK was assembled in late 2002, this Fund had
fewer opportunities to build its income stream. When the Fed began to raise
short-term rates in June 2004, this also increased NRK's borrowing costs,
necessitating a dividend cut in September 2004.
All of these Funds 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, 2004, all of the Funds in this
report had positive UNII balances for both financial statement and tax purposes,
except NRK, which had a negative UNII balance for financial statement purposes
but a positive UNIIbalance for tax purposes.
As of September 30, 2004, all six of these Funds were trading at discounts to
their NAVs. These discounts were generally in line with the Funds' average
discounts over the entire 12-month reporting period.
HOW WERE THE FUNDS POSITIONED IN TERMS OF CREDIT QUALITY AND BOND CALLS AS OF
SEPTEMBER 30, 2004?
Given the current geopolitical and economic climate, we continued to believe
that maintaining strong credit quality was an important requirement. As of the
end of September 2004, NQN, NVN, NUN, and NNF continued to be 100% invested in
insured and/or U.S. guaranteed securities, while NKO and NRK held 84% and 85% of
their portfolios, respectively, in insured bonds as of September 30, 2004.
At the end of September 2004, potential call exposure for these Funds during
2004-2006 ranged from 1% in NKO and NRK to 9% in NUN and 12% in NQN, NVN, and
NNF. The number of actual bond calls in all of these Funds depends largely on
market interest rates.

Notes to
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.
Prior to the commencement of operations of Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage
(NRK), the Fund had no operations other than those related to organizational
matters, the initial capital contribution of $100,275 by Nuveen Advisory Corp.
(the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. and the
recording of the organization expenses ($11,500) and its reimbursement by Nuveen
Investments, LLC, also a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc.
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.
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.
Securities 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
price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal
securities), the pricing service establishes fair market 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. If it is
determined that market prices for a security are unavailable or inappropriate,
the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Funds, or its designee, may establish a
fair value for the security. Temporary investments in securities that have
variable rate and demand features qualifying them as short-term securities are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Securities Transactions
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from such transactions are determined on the specific identification
method. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis
may have extended settlement periods. The securities 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 and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At September 30, 2004,
New York Investment Quality (NQN) and Insured New York Premium Income (NNF) had
outstanding when-issued purchase commitments of $1,626,586 and $787,058,
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.

Notes to
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Income Taxes
Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund
intends to distribute 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, 2004, have been
designated Exempt Interest Dividends. Net realized capital gains and ordinary
income distributions made by the Funds are subject to federal taxation.
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 $25,000 stated value Preferred shares as a
means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued
in one or more Series. The dividend rate on each Series may change every seven
days, as set pursuant to a dutch auction process by the auction agent, and is
payable at or near the end of each rate period. The number of Preferred shares
outstanding, by Series and in total, for each Fund is as follows:

Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK) issued the Preferred shares listed
above on January 17, 2003.
Insurance
New York Investment Quality (NQN), New York Select Quality (NVN), New York
Quality Income (NUN) and Insured New York Premium Income (NNF) invest 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
applicable 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 applicable 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) municipal bonds that are 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.
58
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.
Forward Swap Transactions
The Funds may invest in certain derivative financial instruments. The Funds' use
of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to mitigate the negative
impact that an increase in long-term interest rates could have on Common share
net earnings. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve each Fund's
agreement with the counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed rate payment in
exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a variable rate payment. The
amount of the payment obligation is based on the notional or nominal amount of
the forward swap contract. The Funds may close out a contract prior to the
effective date. When a forward swap is terminated, it does not involve the
delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal, but rather is
settled in cash. Each Fund intends to, 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 minimize
such credit risk, all counterparties are required to segregate 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. Reciprocally, when any
of the Funds have an unrealized loss on a swap contract, the Funds have
instructed the custodian to segregate assets of the Funds as collateral with a
value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss. The Funds help
reduce the credit risks associated with forward swap transactions by entering
into agreements only with counterparties the Adviser believes have the financial
resources to honor their obligations and by having the Adviser monitor the
financial stability of the swap counterparties.
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.
Offering Costs
Nuveen Investments, LLC has agreed to pay all Common share offering costs (other
than the sales load) that exceed $.03 per Common share for Insured New York
Tax-Free Advantage (NRK). Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage's (NRK) share of
Common share offering costs ($105,000) was recorded as a reduction of the
proceeds from the sale of Common shares.
Costs incurred by Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK) in connection with
its offering of Preferred shares ($682,165) was recorded as a reduction to
paid-in surplus.
Indemnifications
Under the Funds' organizational documents, its 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.

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 on investments,
timing differences in recognizing income on taxable market discount securities
and timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on security
transactions.

5. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
As approved by the Board of Directors/Trustees, effective August 1, 2004, a
complex-wide management fee structure was adopted for all funds sponsored by
Nuveen Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen
Investments, Inc. and its affiliates. This fee structure separates each fund's
management fee into two components - a complex-level component, based on the
aggregate amount of all funds assets managed by the Adviser and its affiliates,
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 and its
affiliates. Under no circumstances will this pricing structure result in a fund
paying management fees at a rate higher than would otherwise have been
applicable had the complex-wide management fee structure not been implemented.
As a consequence of this new management fee structure, the funds' effective
management fees were reduced by approximately .007% as of October 31, 2004.
Effective August 1, 2004, the annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each
of the Funds 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)

For the next $500 million .4125
For the next $1 billion .4000
For net assets over $2 billion .3750
================================================================================
Effective August 1, 2004, 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 follows:
COMPLEX-LEVEL ASSETS(1) COMPLEX-LEVEL FEE RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first $55 billion .2000%
For the next $1 billion .1800
For the next $1 billion .1600

For the next $3 billion .1250
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 their 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

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 EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
Your Nuveen Closed-End Exchange-Traded 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
the dividends or distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the market price
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.

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 sensitivity of a bond
or bond fund's value to changes when interest rates change. Generally, the
longer a bond 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.
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 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 entered into on or after May 6, 2003, 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).

ADVISER AND AFFILIATED FUND SERVICE PROVIDERS
The following tables show the amount of fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP to
Nuveen Advisory Corp. ("NAC" or the "Adviser"), and any entity controlling,
controlled by or under common control with NAC ("Control Affiliate") that
provides ongoing services to the Fund ("Affiliated Fund Service Provider"), for
engagements directly related to the Fund's operations and financial reporting,
during the Fund's last two full fiscal years.
The table also shows the percentage of fees subject to the pre-approval
exception. The pre-approval exception for services provided to the Adviser and
any Affiliated Fund Service Provider (other than audit, review or attest
services) waives the pre-approval requirement if: (A) the aggregate amount of
all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of
revenues paid to Ernst & Young LLP by the Fund, the Adviser and Affiliated Fund
Service Providers during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that
would have to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee; (B) the Fund did not
recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and

NON-AUDIT SERVICES
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. For
engagements entered into on or after May 6, 2003, 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 independence.

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

ITEM 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END
MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.
In the rare event that a municipal issuer held by the Fund were to issue a proxy
or that the Fund were to receive a proxy issued by a cash management security,
the Adviser 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 Fund's Board of Directors or Trustees or its
representative. In the case of a conflict of interest, the proxy would be
submitted to the applicable Fund's Board to determine how the proxy should be
voted. A member of the Adviser's legal department would oversee the
administration of the voting, and ensure that records were maintained in
accordance with Rule 204-2(c)(2) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (17
CFR 275.204-2(c)(2)), reports were filed with the SEC on Form N-PX, and the

suitable candidates. Suggestions should be sent in writing to Lorna Ferguson,
Vice President for Board Relations, Nuveen Investments, 333 West Wacker Drive,
