Murray Hill. The area contains many of New York's prime tourist attractions, such as the Empire State Building, Times Square, and the Rockefeller Center. 9 Upper West Side An Intellectual and Cultural Green Space ABOUT UPPER WEST SIDE This expensive neighborhood is home to mostly brownstones and upscale high-rises. Upper West Side is a relaxing escape from central Manhattan, but the rest of the island is still easily accessible. If you are looking for a more peaceful place to live with plenty of greenery and open public spaces, then Upper West Side is the place to be.

I didn't go to Fordham, I probably wouldn't choose to live here, but relative to the other choices that are walking-distance to campus (Upper West Side + Central Park South), I prefer Hell's Kitchen. 14 Midtown Embrace the Hustle and Bustle ABOUT MIDTOWN If you want to be in the center of New York City and all its skyscraper glory, Midtown is the place to live. Renters enjoy the hustle and bustle of the business district and its vibrant cultural scene. Here, Fordham Law students enjoy an authentic Manhattan experience in the thick of it.

Sacks and Sacks, LLP, New York (Scott N. Singer of counsel), for respondent. _________________________ Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Kelly O’Neill Levy, J.), entered March 22, 2016, which, insofar as appealed from as limited by the briefs, denied defendants’ motion for summary judgment dismissing the Labor Law § 240(1) claim and the § 241(6) claim insofar as it is predicated on Industrial Code § 23- 1.16(b), and granted plaintiff’s cross motion for summary judgment as to liability on these claims, unanimously affirmed, without costs. Plaintiff, an iron worker, commenced this action alleging, among other things, violations of Labor Law §§ 240(1) and 241(6) to recover for injuries allegedly sustained when he fell from a concrete panel being installed as part of the stadia, or step- like surface for the seating, at Madison Square Garden. Defendant MSG Holdings, L.P., owned the premises and retained defendant Turner Construction Company to undertake a renovation of the premises pursuant to a construction management agreement. Turner subcontracted structural steel work to Helmark Steel, Inc., which sub-subcontracted the structural steel erection to plaintiff’s employer, Falcon Steel Company. Plaintiff testified at his deposition that on the day of the accident, he was working with a gang erecting precast concrete panels for the stadium seating.

Copyrighted, 1906, BY THE Merchants' Association OF New York. ^ PREFATORY. AST year more than, nine thousand out-of- town buyers registered at the offices of The Merchants' Association of New York. A great many of these asked information as to hotels, theatres, restaurants, ferries, railroad offices, street-car routes, elevated railroads, libraries, public buildings, pleasure resorts, short excursions, etc. The eleven hundred resident members of the Asso- ciation ask many questions as to the location of public offices, hack-rates, distances, automobile sta- tions and similar subjects. It has been found that a hand-book containing in- formation of the kind indicated, in a form convenient for ready-reference, will not only be a great con- venience for visiting merchants, but also in many respects for residents. This pocket-guide is pub- lished in response to that demand. It will be supplied without charge to visiting mer- chants registering at the offices of the Association; and a few free copies are at the disposal of each resident member. Members who desire a large quantity for distribu- tion to their customers will be supplied at about the cost price. CONTENTS. PAGE Ferries, Manhattan: I. Points Reached by Perries 1 II.

Copyright, 1905 By Max Kuhn, New York HINT FROM Mr. MAX KUHN, A Ckief Controller of tkeWaldorf-Astoria, concerning a metKod of keeping everyooay nappy wno IS engagea in tne conduct of a Hotel, Caie, or Restaurant New York 1905 PRICE, ONE DOLLAR DEDICATION To the peace of mind and to the well-being of that goodly company of genial, generous men who, in the best sense, keep open house for the convenience of their fellows —to the happiness of the hotel proprie- tors of our happy land—this book is appreciatively dedicated T IS NOT difficult to be happy when everything is going along smoothly. i But no man can be happy whose guests are growling because they are so badly served; whose help are discontented, and suspicious each man of his fellow; whose exchequer often suffers the loss, not only of the profit on the wine and the bird served his guest, but, of the entire cost of the dinner itself, for the fowl might as well have flown out of the window with all its trimmings, side-dishes, entrees and desserts, so far as his ability to account for the loss of them is concerned. It is, indeed, difficult to make things go smoothly in a large hotel or restaurant where hundreds, often thousands of meals are served daily ; and every portion of every meal must be scrupulously accounted for.
