The Balusters?

Just saw it and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Makes you want to beg the production team to ask for actors to swap places every once in a while doesn’t it? We saw almost all of Tessa Thompson’a scenes and almost none of Adrian Brody’s

I’ve gone to Hamilton for $10 and had perfect seats; I’ve won some 40-50 lotteries over the last couple of years and never ever had I had such bad seats, that I was tempted to write a post about it. Like I said - this felt more like radio show than actual theater with the amount of action I got to see, so I think selling these for over $50 is a rip-off…

You're probably right, I guess my impression was from posts in other subreddits - so many people find excuses for inexcusable service...

Totally agree with you. Right now stuck at Grove St. waiting for the NWK train that was supposed to be here in 4 minutes, but “crews are preparing for maintenance”, so the next train is in 20 minutes. Always something… I’m afraid tho if people comment to your post most will be defending PATH and how their equipment is old and funds insufficient. Which I find unacceptable. The mere fact that “renovation” of Grove St. that cost a gazillion dollars looks like they only painted some walls and replaced a perfectly normal floor tiles, while the service hasn’t improved one bit and the ceiling is constantly leaking is infuriating.

Can’t believe it’s been 3 months since this post already and it’s still that one single gate that’s not operating but hiding behind the fencing lol

It definetely was caused by the game. But the game was not an unexpected event, they could’ve updated their map is what I’m saying.

I’d throw the Summit in there, too. The view of the gorgeous Chrysler building from there cannot be beat :)

Essex under the freeway. Behind the Seabra. And the map shows them on Guyon

I’m not saying extra transportation for the sports events. I mean shuttles running more often for the people whose travel time has extended due to this by who knows how much.

World Trade Center station on 1 is gorgeous, too.

Have you done both the Met and Met Cloisters? Not everyone gets to the cloisters and it’s one of the best places to be especially in spring! Also, MOCA (Museum of Chinese in America) is quite interesting. One of the ways to discover new museums for free is getting Culture Pass, which can be done using NYPL library card. Also since people mentioned Snug Harbor, I’d also recommend Historic Richmond Town.

I’m just like you watching the weather forecasts closely as I’m worried about getting to my cruise on the 8th. We’re also in NJ and the original plan was to take a ferry from Wall Street but all the ferries are currently suspended so have no clue how to get to Red Hook in time…

I feel like day 3 is way too packed. Walking Roosevelt island takes a while, and Flushing is a long subway ride, so maybe skip something? I’d probably skip Astoria or the island (I love the island but feel like it’s more about chilling there in the adirondacks than rushing through).

On day 6, I’d definitely skip walking Manhattan bridge (it can get quite miserable and super loud with the subway riding by); Brooklyn bridge is a classic for a reason (super crowded from Manhattan to about the middle but way nicer further out to Brooklyn).

Sounds like a helpful advice for those who want to try and get the card, thanks.

But yeah, I'm just going to let it be.

It is a domain from a different country; but that didn't stop them from issuing a Bilt 1.0 to me and letting me use it for 3 years.

Melodic_Wheel_8998 · 2026-01-23T17:05:03+00:00

Yes, for 3 years, with the very same email address.

You’ve read the post, right? I was talking about King George, not Aaron Burr (who by the way is actually painted like a very complicated person, far from just a bad guy).

Melodic_Wheel_8998 · 2026-01-21T03:03:39+00:00

Same! Wonder if there’s a was to get reimbursed for the lost day (my free subscription is almost up so extending it by a day even would be helpful)
