The class B floor is 500? Sounds like a recipe for some sort of
airspace version of scud running, which in turns sounds like a great
way to have unrecoverable stalls/engine outs, controlled flight into
terrain/water.
It's a twelve-mile-stretch of the Long Island shore, just a few miles south
of JFK. It's actually quite fun to fly there at that altitude--I've done it
several times. An engine failure wouldn't be especially bad because there's
a beach to land on (or you can ditch just offshore if the beach is too
crowded). You do, of course, need to avoid stalling (or especially
spinning).
