MR Spring Frag Swap - Sunday May 20th

[gparr]

Arrived in Brooklyn last night and was treated to a photo session in front of the Randy Donowitz reef. If my eyes hadn't been crossing from exhaustion, I'd have photographed corals all night. As it is, I was able to make two or three reasonable images, including this one of Randy's clam. I'm not sure the image does the mantle justice, but it's a reasonable shot, nonetheless.

Looking forward to Sunday's event and talking reefs and aquarium photography.

Random question.. do the parking garages near there allow me to park, or are they all valet type? Trying to figure out if I should take my nice car or the pos haha.

They are all valet parking there. The only other option is to come very early and find parking on the street (mission ALMOST impossible) but I would park a nice car on the narrow downtown streets anyway

There actually is self-parking in NYC. I've seen a bunch of places. The building where I dormed during college had it and I'm pretty sure they still do. About 10 blocks to Pace. 55 Water Street

Do NOT use this list for parking options. I only see one of them that is walking distance to the swap.

ICON Seaport Parking is your best bet. It's diagonally across of the rear (Gold Street) of Pace University. The entrance appears it is going under an apartment building. I punched in, arrive at 10am and depart at 6pm for May 20th and says $15. Don't forget to print your coupon. http://nyc.bestparking.com

As I said before, that list is for SELF PARKING. Obviously there are valet garages closer.

Am I too late for RSVP?

Am I too late for RSVP?

You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?'


...try it!

I'm in. This will be my first visit to Manhattan since leaving the financial industry for greener pastures

I may even visit my old office building (1 liberty plaza) just to spit on it.
