Schwertfeger Chairman of the Board Sidebar text: WE THINK YOUR NUVEEN FUND CAN BE AN IMPORTANT BUILDING BLOCK IN A PORTFOLIO DESIGNED TO PERFORM WELL THROUGH A VARIETY OF MARKET CONDITIONS. Dear SHAREHOLDER I am very pleased to report that for the year ended September 30, 2003, your Nuveen New York Fund continued to provide you with attractive monthly income free from regular federal, New York State and New York City income taxes. While a number of different New York Funds are covered in this report, each is managed with the same value investing strategy that puts an emphasis on finding securities that we think are undervalued or underrated. We believe that there are always some municipal bonds that the market is not properly valuing, and that by using a consistent, research-oriented management approach we have the opportunity to find them for your Fund. We think this is true even with interest rates at the relatively low levels we've seen over much of the past year. In this low-rate environment, many have begun to wonder whether interest rates will soon start to rise, and whether that possibility should cause them to adjust their holdings of fixed-income investments. We believe that by constructing a carefully balanced portfolio with the help of a trusted investment professional you may be able to reduce your overall investment risk and give yourself a better chance to meet your financial goals. We think that municipal bond investments like your Nuveen New York Fund can be important building blocks in a portfolio designed to perform well through a variety of market conditions. Since 1898, Nuveen Investments has offered financial products and solutions that incorporate careful research, diversification, and the application of conservative risk-management principles. We are grateful that you have chosen us as a partner as you pursue your financial goals. We look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead. Sincerely, /s/ Timothy R. Schwertfeger Timothy R. Schwertfeger Chairman of the Board November 15, 2003 1 Nuveen New York Municipal Closed-End Exchange-Traded Funds (NQN, NVN, NUN, NNF, NKO, NRK) Portfolio Manager's COMMENTS Portfolio manager Paul Brennan discusses economic and market conditions, key investment strategies, and the annual performance of the Funds. With 12 years of investment experience, Paul has managed NQN, NVN, NUN, and NNF since 1999, adding NKO and NRK at their inceptions in March and November 2002, respectively. WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE 12-MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003? Over the 12-month period, the two greatest influences on the general economy and the municipal market continued to be historically low interest rates and the slow pace of economic improvement. In June 2003, the Federal Reserve cut the fed funds rate to 1%, the lowest level since 1958. Much of the recent concern about economic recovery centered on the weak labor market--as of September 2003, U.S. unemployment was 6.1%, up from 5.7% 12 months earlier. At the same time, inflation remained dormant, with the 12-month advance in the core rate dropping to 1.2% in September. The slow rate of economic recovery, low interest rates, and lack of inflationary pressures helped many municipal bonds perform well over the majority of this reporting period. During the summer of 2003, however, stronger-than-expected economic data temporarily precipitated a spike in bond yields and a corresponding drop in bond prices that impacted overall results across all fixed-income markets. During January-September 2003, municipal supply nationally remained robust, with $287 billion in new bonds--up 13% over the same period in 2002. HOW WERE ECONOMIC AND MARKET CONDITIONS IN NEW YORK? Over the 12-month period, both New York State and New York City continued to struggle with budget problems triggered by the national recession, weak financial markets, a drop in revenues from personal income and capital gains taxes, and a decline in tourism. The final state budget for fiscal 2004, which totaled $92.8 billion, was balanced through a combination of borrowing, spending cuts, and increased taxes and fees. New York City managed to keep its budget balanced through expenditure reductions, aid from the state and federal governments, borrowing through the Transitional Finance Authority (TFA), and increased property taxes. New York's high level of debt, leaves the state's financial status vulnerable to further economic stress. As of September 2003, New York State's credit rating was A2/AA, while New York City was rated A2 with a declining outlook by Moody's and A with a negative outlook by S&P. During the first nine months of 2003, municipal issuance in New York state totaled $30 billion, a 19% decrease from the same period in 2002. 2 HOW DID THESE NUVEEN NEW YORK FUNDS PERFORM OVER THIS REPORTING PERIOD? Individual results for these insured Funds, as well as for relevant benchmarks, are presented in the accompanying table.

For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your Fund in this report. For the 12 months ended September 30, 2003, NQN, NVN, NUN, and NNF outperformed the Lehman Brothers New York Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index as well as their Lipper peer group average, while NKO's performance slightly trailed these two benchmarks. Over the past 12 months, the Funds' use of leverage influenced their performances. Leveraging is a strategy that can provide opportunities for additional income for common shareholders, especially during periods of low short-term interest rates. The four older Funds also benefited from their duration4 positioning during this period. As of September 30, 2003, the durations of these four Funds ranged from 7.86 to 8.87. NKO, however, had a longer duration (10.97) typical of a newer Fund, which had a negative impact on the Fund's performance, since investments with longer durations generally would be expected to underperform those with shorter durations during periods of rising interest rates, all other factors being equal. In addition to duration and leverage, factors such as insurance, call exposure, portfolio trading activity, and the price movement of specific sectors and holdings also had an impact on the Funds' performances during this period. For example, because investors generally tended to be somewhat risk-averse over the 12 month period, insured issues were in greater demand, and these bonds generally performed better than their noninsured counterparts during this period, which benefited the performance of these insured Funds. HOW DID THE MARKET ENVIRONMENT AFFECT THE FUNDS' DIVIDENDS AND SHARE PRICES? With short-term interest rates remaining at historically low levels, the dividend-payment capabilities of the insured New York Funds benefited from the use of leverage. During the 12 months ended September 30, 2003, continued low short-term rates enabled us to implement three dividend increases in NQN, two in NVN, and one each in NUN and NNF. Leverage also helped to support the dividend of NKO, which, as of September 2003, had provided shareholders with steady, attractive dividends for 17 consecutive 1 The total annual returns on common share net asset value (NAV) for these Nuveen Funds are compared with the total annual return of the Lehman Brothers New York Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index, an unleveraged, unmanaged index comprising a broad range of insured New York municipal bonds. Results for the Lehman index do not reflect any expenses. 2 The total returns of these Nuveen New York Funds are compared with the average annualized return of the 10 funds in the Lipper New York Insured Municipal Debt Funds category. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends. 3 Taxable-equivalent yield represents the yield that must be earned on a taxable investment, other than an investment that generates qualified dividend income that is taxable at the maximum rate of 15%, in order to equal the yield of the Nuveen Fund on an after-tax basis. It is calculated using the current yield and a federal income tax rate of 28%. The rate shown for federal and state highlights the added value of owning shares that are also exempt from state income taxes. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax rate of 33.5%. 4 Duration is a measure of a fund's NAV volatility in reaction to interest rate movements. Fund duration, also known as leverage-adjusted duration, takes into account the leveraging process for a fund and therefore is generally longer than the duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the fund. References to duration in this commentary are intended to indicate fund duration unless otherwise noted. 3 months. NRK, which was introduced in November 2002, declared its first dividend in January 2003 and continued to pay steady dividends over the course of this reporting period. Increased volatility in the fixed-income markets during the summer of 2003 led to an overall weakening of bond prices. The Funds' share prices and NAVs generally finished the reporting period lower than they had been at the beginning. As of September 30, 2003, NQN, NVN, NUN, NNF, and NKO continued to trade at discounts to their common share NAVs, while NRK moved from trading at a premium at its inception to a discount by the end of the period (see charts on individual Performance Overview pages). WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THESE FUNDS DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003? Over this 12-month reporting period, we continued to place strong emphasis on diversifying the portfolios, improving call protection, and enhancing dividend-paying capabilities. One of our primary strategies focused on managing the Funds' durations in order to enhance our ability to mitigate interest rate risk and produce potentially more consistent returns over time. Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a Fund's portfolio will decline when market interest rates rise . The longer the duration of a Fund's portfolio, the greater its interest rate risk. In order to better manage the Fund's durations, the majority of our purchase activity centered on value opportunities in the intermediate part of the yield curve (i.e., bonds that mature in 15 to 20 years). In many cases, bonds in this part of the curve offered yields similar to those of longer-term bonds but, in our opinion, have less interest rate risk. Although issuance in the New York municipal market was down somewhat from 2002 levels, we continued to find opportunities to make trades that could benefit the Funds. We also believed that, given the current geopolitical and economic climate, maintaining strong credit quality also remains a vital requirement. The four older Funds were 100% invested in insured and/or U.S. guaranteed bonds, while the two newer Funds (NKO and NRK), which are allowed to invest up to 20% in uninsured investment-grade quality securities, each held 86% of its portfolio in insured bonds as of September 30, 2003. By that date, NRK was fully invested and held approximately 92% of its portfolio in New York securities and the remaining 8% in territorial bonds. We have continued to hold and add to our tobacco investments while regularly evaluating the situation. One of the larger issues to come to market in New York was $2.3 billion in bonds issued by the New York State Tobacco 4 Settlement Financing Corporation. In addition to tobacco company revenues, this latest tobacco issue was secured by appropriations from the state that would cover any potential shortfall in tobacco company revenues. In addition, a portion of this issue was offered as insured bonds. We felt that, with these enhancements, the bonds offered good value at attractive prices, and we purchased the insured issuance for all six of these New York Funds. NKO and NRK also continued to hold uninsured tobacco bonds that were purchased previously. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR BOND CALLS FOR THESE FUNDS? Looking ahead at bond calls, the two newer New York Funds should not experience any significant call exposure for several years, while the potential call exposure of the four older Funds ranged from 9% in NQN to 16% in NNF through 2005. During this reporting period, we continued to work to mitigate the call risk of the older Funds, especially NNF. The number of actual calls in these Funds will depend largely on market interest rates in coming months. 5 Nuveen New York Investment Quality Municipal Fund, Inc.

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 Common shares (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage's Common shares (NRK) 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 Dividend Advantage (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK), each 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. (formerly, The John Nuveen Company), and the recording of the organization expenses ($11,500 per Fund) and their reimbursement by Nuveen Investments, LLC(formerly, Nuveen Investments), 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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, 2003, there were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the 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. 51 Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Income Taxes Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income to its shareholders. 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, 2003, have been designated Exempt Interest Dividends. 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Preferred Shares The Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000 stated value Preferred shares. 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 INSURED INSURED NEW YORK NEW YORK NEW YORK NEW YORK NEW YORK NEW YORK INVESTMENT SELECT QUALITY PREMIUM DIVIDEND TAX-FREE QUALITY QUALITY INCOME INCOME ADVANTAGE ADVANTAGE (NQN) (NVN) (NUN) (NNF) (NKO) (NRK) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of shares: Series M 960 -- 2,200 1,320 -- -- Series T 2,400 1,720 -- 1,280 -- -- Series W -- 2,400 2,200 -- -- -- Series TH -- 3,600 2,400 -- 2,440 1,080 Series F 2,400 -- 1,080 -- -- -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 5,760 7,720 7,880 2,600 2,440 1,080 ======================================================================================================== Effective January 17, 2003, Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK) issued 1,080 Series TH $25,000 stated value Preferred shares. 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. 52 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 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. Derivative Financial Instruments The Funds may invest in certain derivative financial instruments including futures, forward, swap and option contracts, and other financial instruments with similar characteristics. Although the Funds are authorized to invest in such financial instruments, and may do so in the future, they did not make any such investments during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003. 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 InsuredNew York Dividend Advantage (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK). InsuredNew York Dividend Advantage's (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage's (NRK) share of Common share offering costs ($238,500 and $105,000, respectively) were recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the sale of Common shares. Costs incurred by Insured New York Dividend Advantage (NKO) and Insured New York Tax-Free Advantage (NRK) in connection with their offerings of Preferred shares ($758,192 and $682,165, respectively) were recorded as a reduction to paid-in surplus. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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.

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 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. FLEXIBILITY 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.

Bremner Lawrence H. Brown Anne E. Impellizzeri Peter R. Sawers William J. Schneider Timothy R. Schwertfeger Judith M. Stockdale FUND MANAGER Nuveen Advisory Corp. 333 West Wacker Drive Chicago, IL 60606 CUSTODIAN State Street Bank & Trust Boston, MA TRANSFER AGENT AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICES State Street Bank & Trust Nuveen Funds P.O. Box 43071 Providence, RI 02940-3071 (800) 257-8787 LEGAL COUNSEL Chapman and Cutler LLP Chicago, IL INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Ernst & Young LLP Chicago, IL POLICY CHANGE On November 14, 2002, the Board adopted a policy that allows these Funds, in addition to investments in municipal bonds, to invest up to 5% of its net assets (including assets attributable to preferred shares, if any) in tax-exempt or taxable fixed-income securities or equity securities for the purpose of acquiring control of an issuer whose municipal bonds (a) the Fund already owns and (b) have deteriorated or are expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality, provided Nuveen Advisory determines that such investment should enable the Fund to better maximize the value of its existing investment in such issuer. This policy is a non-fundamental policy of each Fund which means that it can be changed at any time by the Board of Trustees without vote of the shareholders. 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 (including change in NAV and reinvested dividends) that would have been necessary on an annual basis to equal the investment's actual performance 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 a bond or bond fund's sensitivity to changes in interest rates. 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 generally longer than the duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the Fund. 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 NAV is calculated by subtracting the liabilities of 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. --------- Each Fund intends to repurchase shares of its own common or preferred stock in the future at such times and in such amounts as is deemed advisable. No shares were repurchased during the year ended September 30, 2003. Any future repurchases will be reported to shareholders in the next annual or semiannual report. 69 Serving Investors FOR GENERATIONS Since 1898, financial advisors and their clients have relied on Nuveen Investments to provide dependable investment solutions.
