LOL... yep.. there is no 4th avenue. The avenues in midtown go like
this



There is a 4th Avenue down on the Lower East Side, however--at about
13th
Street.
Photo-Tech Camera repair is at that intersection . . . best camera
repair shop
in NY.

Starts below 14th street. Also don't forget Avenue A, B, and C. (York
is ave A below
14th as well).

Then when you get up to Central park you have Central Park West, Columbus
and Amerstam
Avenues etc... There are another two dozen or so miscellaneous N/S
avenues thrown in at
various places.


I said 'the avenues in *midtown*' not the lower east side or upper west
side.

Enjoy. Call the FBOs at Teterboro. Get the numbers from AOPA.

a
free night's parking if you fill up. Ask them to drive you to the
bus
stop,
or walk if the weather's nice. It's a 15 minute hike. The bus will
take
you directly to the Port Authority at 42nd and 4th.

Isn't the Port Authority bus terminal on the west side, somewhere
around
40th and 8th?


LOL... yep.. there is no 4th avenue. The avenues in midtown go like this
(list is from east to west):

York
1st
2nd
3rd
Lexington
Park
Madison
5th
6th
7th
8th
9th
10th
11th


East End Avenue is east of York on the upper east side, from 79th street
to
about 88th street. That's where Gracie Mansion is, the mayor's official
residence (and where this billionaire mayor doesn't live).


Again, I said 'the avenues in *midtown*' not the upper east side.

I know--I was just piling on :-)

That's right. You did. And I said:

There is a 4th Avenue down on the Lower East Side, *however*--at about
13th

(emphasis added)

I was not contradicting you . . . merely adding useful information. :-)

Even on a slow day, the NYC airspace is more crowded than anywhere else on
earth.



Except Chicago.

And New York is a rare city in that its avenues run north and south.

Avenues are supposed to be roads lined with trees, and the best sun
for that comes if the road runs west and east... which is the way of
most cities.

Rare? I don't know about that. The entire Puget Sound area uses the
convention that avenues are north/south and streets are east/west.
Practically all the cities here use that convention, including Seattle, so
I'd hardly call a city that uses that convention "rare". There must be a
hundred or more cities around here that do.

This far north, you're lucky to get any sun at all at ground level on one of the
streets at anything besides high summer. At least the avenues will get sun several
hours a day.

Trees? In NYC? Besides the parks, I don't think so. Trees don't grow well
in the pavement between skyscrapers...

Also true, but there are huge areas of Manhattan that have no skyscrapers . . .
and plenty of trees. The Village, Chelsea, Little Italy, Chinatown, Lower East
Side. I spend weekends in Soho--on West Broadway (runs north and south). There
are lots of trees.
