Another suggestion to add is the DUMBO area of brooklyn, down under mahattanville overpass, easy to reach from manhattan, take a nice stroll across the brooklyn bridge and your there, lots of cool restaurants. Another bit of history, walk to montague street, yes the montague street mr dylan sings about in tangled up in blue. (some controversy over this) best way to walk is on the promenade along the east river, great views of manhattan. Enjoy -- Sent using BlackBerry -Original Message- From: J.

Harlem is in the process of going through a renaissance and has been over the past 10 or more so things have changed for the better. Just avoid going there after certain hours ;) As for the prior Brooklyn comment, Park Slope also has some great eats but the area/scene tends to be sort of artsy. If you want to spend some time sightseeing Brooklyn, the Brooklyn Public Library (main one) Grand Army Plaza is near the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens. Don't forget Coney Island which has also changed in the last decade. Again, watch those hours, NY is a Jeckyll and Hyde city. Nice sometimes, beautiful to visit but can be insanely ugly. The downtown Brooklyn area has some nice eats but I've always preferred the city. In the area of downtown Brooklyn, you'll typically find a bunch of people in local government and lawyers eating as the courts are downtown. For those looking for sweets, don't forget the ever famous (overhyped) Junior's Cheesecake. If you've travelled to Coney Island then one cannot forget Nathan's. There are some really good pubs in the Red Hook section, but alas again, going through certain neighborhoods is not for everyone. You can jump on a Water Taxi there for kicks though. Makes for nice pictures at night. Sightseeing: Jump on a boat at night (booze cruise) $25.00 http://www.nywatertaxi.com/tours/happyhour/ Or just hop on an On and Off cruise: http://www.nywatertaxi.com/hop/ $20.00
Re: NANOG NYC Event
Speaking of food, ill be going to the Big Apple BBQ fest next weekend: http://bigapplebbq.org/2008/ If you love to eat BBQ, this is a big MUST to cap off your stay in NYC. if you do decided to go, be sure to get the Fastpass: http://www.bigapplebbq.org/2008/index.php?s=fastpass You dont want to wait 30 mins online for food.

There are excellent Chinese and Indian restaurants in Lower Manhattan. Don't forget about Brooklyn in all this Manhattan praise :-). Consider the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. It's too late for cherries but the rose collections will be great.

This is not a controversial statement. While I generally agree with what Rod is saying, saying NYC is safe is like saying all routers are cisco There are safe areas, and there are not safe areas. I don't know how the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn bridge rates, but I don't think I'd be overly concerned. And, since people going to NANOG tend to have a herding instinct, there shouldn't be a problem. New York has a lower incidence of crime than Miami, Detroit, Seattle, Los Vegas, Houston, Atlanta, DC, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. Yes, but in at least most of those locations, my Florida or Utah CCW is valid.
