| Greenpoint YMCA (Accomodations!) |
If you can't or don't want to stay in the city you might want to consider the Greenpoint YMCA. It's just $40 for a single and $50 for a double, and the Y is located across from the NYPD. How much safer could you be? The only downside is that there's no air conditioning, which could be a killer in the summer.
The Y is just around the corner from Russ Pizza...step outside of Russ after your slice and
take a left. At the next intersection (Meserole Avenue) take another left. The YMCA is right there. I still, however, recommend the Hotel Riverside Studios in the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
Or if you follow the instructions at the beginning of the "Brooklyn Stores" page just get off of subway at the "Bedford" stop and take a right heading down Bedford street until you get to Manhattan Avenue in Greenpoint (a neighborhood in Brooklyn). Take a left and go three blocks until you get to Meserole Avenue. Go left and the "Y" is rignt there.
