Bay Ridge is far from downtown.  There are subways everywhere.  It would be
insane to rent a car unless your work day involves driving around the Bay
Ridge area.
How much time will you have?
Take the Staten Island ferry - great trip.  Or the circle Line around
Manhattan.  Visit lower Manhattan to see the 911 memorial and then take the
ferry to Liberty Island.  Plenty of great museums and Broadway theaters may
be opening up.

It's like any big city. Dirty, smelly, crime-ridden, scammers everywhere, 
expensive. I was there in the mid 1990s. Friend of mine showed me around and we 
went to a couple of cool bars but all in all I would never care to go back.

Cuomo and De blasio?   There may be rampant lock down and not much opportunity 
to see much. Take SWMBO,  it will make her happy to see the place.  I have not 
been in the city in over five decades, so my data is out of date

I turned my computer upside down and shook it, but the bookmark for what I'm 
looking for didn't fall out.
