Made It

[mgarbowski]

In seriousness -- walk across the bridge and do Brooklyn Bridge Park as @Vires suggested. You can subway it back to Manhattan. It's a gorgeous if slightly bracing day - take advantage of it.

@Drainyoo where's your family joint?

 

[BxLio91]

Not much to add except STAY AWAY FROM THE PINK HOUSES IN BROOKLYN.

For the sake of all things holy... do NOT go to Staten Island. I don't care how much you love Tiger Jones.

[Goodfella]

Landed in the City a few hours ago.
What are some go-to things?
Had to take a cab through morning traffic and that was miserable.
What time should I stay away from certain areas. Such as financial district, due to people getting off work or going in.

Welcome to my Island....Aye, it's mine.

Id head over to DUMBO in Brooklyn (right over the Brooklyn bridge from Manhattan - walk it!) if you have never seen the view, its the best in the world.

Some of the best pizza in NYC can be found right there too. I can meet you after work for a bite if you would like!

Not sure what the schedule will be like. Check in at 3 @Falastur should be in around then too and we'll see what happens. Can't make promises or trust myself with transportation just yet

Not sure if that'll be on the schedule today. Just paid $60 to get out of queens when I landed.

 

[NYCFC_Dan]

We're staying in Crowne Plaza and there's a sbarros right across the street. Not one for chain pizza so idk if that'll happen.

 

[Midas Mulligan]

Make sure to tell someone "Fuck you" or flip them the bird if it's too noisy.

 

[SFphoto]

haha The Sbarro's thing was a poorly timed joke. Doesn't anyone watch The Office?!

It's ok. I know we're disliked. I carry that banner proudly. I love this place though, it's so bizarre.
