what about 230 5th? it may be a little pricey, but you can't beat the view and there's a lot of seating on the rooftop !



230 5th will be $15 a drink. Assume 2-3 drinks each, might total about $45 a person + tip.
I don't mind...but I am concerned for the internationals.
When I first came to NY, $15 a drink freaked me out.

yea I know you are right...and it may rain sunday. I just figured it would be a great view of the city for someone visiting for the first time.

However I agree, I wouldn't be adverse to go somewhere cheaper.

Ok so I can pick a few bars/restaurants. So it is agreed we will meet on Sunday April 27th right?

I'm somewhat new to manhattan myself, but I know a few places to go to. What time would you all like to meet?


I say not too late, I vote for afternoon.
blackbelt, pick a place, though I prefer downtown...


Downtown is fine. Uylesses or trinity, although I don't know whether these are open on Sunday. I heard Uylesses and that whole area opens up the street in the summer. I could give them a call.


Uylesses open on Sunday till 3am, I called.

Just to be clear , it's 230 5th avenue, not 230th st and 5th avenue. The cross streets are 26th st and 5th avenue in Manhattan, right at the northwest corner of Madison Square Park. And it is really a great place to have a cocktail...or several...despite the prices. It does have indoor seating, if worst comes to worst. So 4 PM? Are we decided? I am very excited to meet all of you, incidentally...how will we know one another? Should I wear a rose in my jacket lapel?? :wink:

Have fun hanging out. But please be careful to avoid discussing CR and SC questions that are pertaining to nuclear fission, sun's hydrogen, or radiation decays. These questions may raise suspicions among NYkers especially when discussed by a group of people that might include non native english speakers, and/or non-whites.

We did take pictures! But I think Walker was flying out to the West Coast today, so you must be patient - I doubt he's had time to load them up. Nice crowd, BTW. Lots of smart, interesting folk...typical GMATclubbers, really... :wink:
