Do find Sakura a good Japanese restaurant in the Bubble. Also Kayame and Kung Fu are passable Thai. |

And yes, I agree with Tarpon Springs for Greek food... it's hard to find good Greek restaurants up here in the upper midwest. |

Lived there for a week, commuted from mid town to the USCG at the Battery to take pilot exams.
No trees, no grass, LOTS and LOTS of cement and steel. . Financial headquarters of my last company was in Brooklyn, took trains from long Island. People just hang out on the street when there is nothing else to do, and way too many hang out at the same time. Just a place where there are no redeeming qualities that I can't get better qualities elsewhere. Driving down in May and going to take i287 western NJ just to avoid getting anywhere near it. . eh, i rather go places I haven't been before. . Scandinavia is calling. . |

After having been in NYC, myself, if Moses came down from the hill and said it was safe, I wouldn’t believe it.

Chicago is a great comparison. When my husband and daughter were driving to Canada on a trip they stopped at a Holiday Inn as they usually do when they are traveling. There was blood on the walls of their room. Not a city they plan to visit too soon again. |

Wouldn't go back anymore. Last time I was there [ for a show, 5yrs ago] , the whole place looked like a slum.

2) I have heard rumors, which I choose to believe, that the police in my city are increasingly refusing to take crime reports. (Due to being understaffed, and possibly, pressure from superiors.) 3) This is the best of all possible worlds. |

Yes, it's the same for London. Get to the National Gallery and Portrait Gallery. Maybe Hampton. Get a curry and get out.

I wouldn't want to be 20 miles from this. Not a place I'd want to be walking back to my apartment after a nice night out with friends. Looks like a good place to get mugged. |

Way too many people in too small of a place.[/QUOTE]
[ LOL That's what I say about the Villages as I try to convince myself to buy there. I'm getting closer to convincing myself. |
