New York City, New York recent comments:

  • Buddakan NYC, barren (guest) wrote 18 years ago:
    Love the over-the-top stylized description. Could do without the pregnant part however, almost offended.

  • 95 East 10th Street, Zagat NY1 (guest) wrote 19 years ago:
    Black sesame, wasabi, corn - "do these sound like ice cream flavors?" ask frequenters of this "cute" spot. Surveyors add, the "fantastic fusion" of "great-tasting," "exotic" ingredients is the draw, and what's more, regulars say the portions are "generous" and the quality "amazing." Out of a possible 30, Sundaes and Cones receives a 25 for quality, a 22 for display, and another 25 for service. Zagat says prices here are moderate.
  • Stuyvesant Yacht Club (closed), waveguide33 (guest) wrote 19 years ago:
    Stuyvesant YC is a membership club founded in 1890. It was originally at Port Morris, then sited on what is now Orchard Beach. It moved to it's present location in the 30's when Robert Moses decided to make Orchard Beach a NYC public park. The club members are primarily sailboaters although all are welcome. See the club's website for scheduling and contact information.

  • NYU Third Avenue North Residence Hall, akb427 (guest) wrote 19 years ago:
    At time of construction, most expensive dorm is US history; over $70M, at least $20M was overrun. The construction delays meant some plan amendments; originally the building was supposed to have concrete arches on the tops of the towers, similar to the one on the Third Avenue South (now Alumni Hall) dorm a few blocks south. As costs rose and the project ran over a year late, these were omitted. This meant that the roofs had not been designed to be exposed to the elements; as a result, during the first year of full occupancy (1988-1989 school year), the elevators shorted out several times during major rainstorms. Another architectural oops was that the kitchens all had very sensitive smoke detectors, but many were designed without exhaust hoods for the stoves. This meant approximately 40 false fire alarms in the first few months of occupancy, most resulting in residents having to walk down and back up; the building is about fifteen stories.
  • Tom's Restaurant, Lophan! (guest) wrote 19 years ago:
    With the demise of the College Inn (thanks Columbia Trustees for not renewing their lease), Tom's is now the last greasy spoon in the area. Not a fan myslef, but they have decent fries. Another known fact: Suzanne Vega's song "Tom's Diner" was based on Tom's Restaurant (Ms. Vega was a student at Barnard).

  • Tom's Restaurant, Bob Sklar (guest) wrote 20 years ago:
    The Seinfeld characters should have been in excellent physical shape during the show's run, as they supposedly all lived somewhere in the West 70's, and were always meeting at Tom's!
