    I know a couple of folk who have done this and apparently there is a little mini park with a turtle fountain in it. And there is Dark Tower graffiti there.

    FYI now is the time for suggestions on places to go eat while I'm in NYC. Also if you have any other Tower related stuff I could work into my trip, that would be awesome.

    Go to an italian restaurant in Greenwich Village called Ennio & Michael. You'll thank me when you get back. One of the owners is the father of guy I was friends with in high school. The food is fantastic. Here's a review from the Times...

    Well, if you're going to the Village, then check out Life Cafe ( made famous in the movie/play Rent ).

    See, I knew I could convince you. I'll set you and your wife up with reservations at The Dixie Pig.

    Try Carmine's (we ate at the Theater District restaurant), it's phenominal italian and HUGE portions. Check out their website first 'cause they have a menu posted.

    I don't remember the names of most of the places we ate. Very little of our food stops were planned. We ate at a dinner in Times Square where the wait staff sang broadway songs (starving actors and all you know). We also ate at a pizza joint at the corner of 5th Ave and 32nd St. Wonderful pizza there and reasonably priced.
