Yes, they open partially. On a cool evening, that's enough to cool the room but I can't imagine you would want to open them on a hot humid night. In that case, rhe AC is a better choice. The AC is easy to control, i.e., one can easily get the benefits of a temperature lower than outside and lower humidity without being cold.
There are only two bars; you can definitely have a drink without food. Not sure about whether they will allow your son in, but if they don't you can always bring your drink to the really nice lounge area near the lobby.
I've never used a shuttle to the theatre district so I would call the hotel concierge to inquire. There IS a house car/limo available to use for shorter distances depending on whether its in use by others or not at the time you need it. We usually still tip the driver FYI. There are three entrances into the Lotte NY Palace. One though the gates on Madison (but I never use that one). And two others which are on the street at 50th and 51st. Those are much easier to use and only steps from the elevators.
