Hello NYCers and adjacent! Happy Summer Solstice!
I have been asked by Sidnora to fill her shoes (an impossible task) and offer up two dates for our future NYC Meetup. The dates are Sunday, August 4th @ 12 p.m. or the evening of August 6th, starting at 6 p.m. See the poll below.
Either event will be held at the wonderful Spitzer's (directions below).
Please respond with your preference and we will tally the votes and publish the 'winner' in a later diary.
Place: Spitzer's Corner
101 Rivington Street (corner of Ludlow)
Meet us in the back room. This venue is wheelchair accessible.
Directions by subway: J,M,Z,F to Essex St./Delancey Street Station.
If your coming in from outside of the city:
From Grand Central: take the downtown 6 train (6 stops) to Bleecker Street Station, walk downstairs to Broadway-Lafayette station, change for the downtown F train (2 stops) to Delancey Street Station.
From Penn Station: walk one block east to 34th St/Herald Square subway station, take F train (10 stops) to Delancey Street Station.
From Port Authority Bus Terminal: take the downtown A,C, or E train to West 4th Street Station (4 stops), walk downstairs and take the downtown F train (3 stops) to Delancey Street.
Any of these trips takes about 20-25 minutes.
If you are driving, there's a very inexpensive municipal lot a block or two away, on Delancey Street. And on-street parking is free on Sundays.
