@DougNg:

35th and 6th Ave

@Chris:

Nice- I'm at 31st & 7th.

@Megatron1505:

You've got a few of us for neighbors, Kiya.:)

Like I said, I'll be there for a while…..just got to figure how long it will take me to get from there to West 51st Street, and by cab or subway.

Is that where you're staying?
I'm at Yotel for almost two weeks which is at 42nd and 10th, very close to West 51st.

I'm actually on 43rd and 8th…...so even closer 

Edit: Whats your recommendation for getting back uptown around 10pm on a Friday night Kiya?

West 51st is just where the theatre is that I have to pick up my boy and wife from.

$2.25 - Subway ride 30-35mins
You can take the F train uptown to W4th St
Transfer to the uptown E or C train
Get off at 50th st

$10-15 - Take a cab ride - 15-25mins(depending on traffic)

Warriors! Come out and Plaaaaay!

[Megatron1505]

Yep, so now she is perfectly sure that the New York subway system becomes filled with gangs of knife wielding maniacs after dark, didn't make her feel better by saying "gangs might be taking it too far, just the odd one or two" 

[seawolf]

Bwhahaha!

Me, at the very least…

The subway is the way to go if you want super cheap, but after about 10pm traffic clears up a bit and taking a taxi up to midtown west won't cost you as much as you think it would.

[DougNg]

Unless you're staying in Times Sq and your cab gets stuck on a street right after a show lets people out…then you're kinda screwed

[Megatron1505]

Ha ha, on the way back I figure I'd just get out and walk.

Thanks for the tips guys.

Just found out my friends apartment is about a 10 minute walk from SENY.  Talk about great location for this weekend…

I'm also getting in Thursday morning now, if anyone is interested in meeting up that afternoon/evening shoot me a pm

[Megatron1505]

Any smokers attending? I hear cigarettes are super expensive in NYC so drop me a line if you want to pick you some up from Duty Free on the way out.

[urbanwoodsman]

If anyone needs food/coffee/shopping recommendations or directions, just pm me.

[derivative666]

I'm sure there will be plenty of "smokers" just not sure if we are interested in cigarettes

[Megatron1505]

Ha ha, not sure I can get that at duty free

Maybe if you were going to the west (best) coast instead of the east… 

[Megatron1505]

No preference from me dude, the US is my favourite country to visit in general. My wife and I got engaged in New York, and had our Honeymoon in California 

[CLJ]

It is an incredible country with incredible scenery. Rainforest, desert, swamp, sandy beaches, and arctic tundra. Would love to drive it coast to coast one day.
