This is not a bad deal in my opinion. If we really wanted to go up the
East River, we just need to contact ATC. Being in the heart of the busiest
Class B in the world, pilots should be comfortable with ATC if they are
there anyhow.

However, you've now a region of airspace where one set of pilots will be
on the self-announce and another on the LGA frequency. That sounds like
an especially bad idea.

Unless they plan to never clear in fixed wings to the otherwise-exclusion
zone.
