You take the ferry across the river, and literally cross the street to the convention center.

I have driven in Manhattan quite a bit. Drive with purpose, be aggressive but not a douche. There are ALOT of one way streets, they basically usually alternate directions.

Go cancel your flights and rentals and blow a stack on an Xbone.

Coronavirus?
Was on hold for over 4hrs this morning trying to cancel through Chase since I booked with ultimate rewards, but never got through. I'm hoping to either just reschedule or end up paying 2-300 to cancel through the airline. Dunno mang
