Glad you enjoyed little Italy, you just missed the feast of San Gennaro, always a great street festival, (Mulberry St) down there. Vincent's - best calamari around and Ferraras Bakery, and don't forget Forlini's Restaurant over on Baxter St., all great places. That entire area, can be a lot of fun, parts of the village, etc. lots of places to visit and patronize. Don't forget Juniors over in downtown Brooklyn - fantastic cheesecake.
To the utterly rude and unfounded ignorant comments below, it is abundantly clear, you know nothing of Manhattan and the outer boroughs, simple case of engaging mouth before brain, we all do it at one time or another, looks like yours was now.
I worked there over 15 years, in addition to spending lots of time there prior to a career that brought me there, the traffic can be a real tough thing to deal with as are many other things, but the place presents a formidable challenge for anyone who works there. It can make or break a person in some respects.
For many, it is a place to visit, not live, but I see no reason for anyone to condemn this place based on superficial knowledge.
Tolls, parking are what they are, there are plenty of ways to visit the city, that don't cost much, I used to park in a parking garage daily, was like $16/day, reimbursed, but even today, you have to know the places to go. You could always find places in the village and surrounding areas that were reasonable, I can recall many, $3 guiness, and lunch for under $10, in those days, you head uptown, say in the 50's and the east side, forget it, cheaper to take a cab downtown to eat, used to work on 53rd and Fifth, never ate lunch up there, prices were not much different than 165 miles north where I'm from, been out of there since '04.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
