Lower Manhattan Tuesdays

(Source)



Lower Manhattan -- that area south of Chambers Street that many only equate with courthouses, "Ground Zero", Century 21, Wall Street and being a ghost town after 5 PM or on the weekends -- is now home to the promotion Lower Manhattan Tuesdays presented by the Downtown Alliance for New York. It will run every Tuesday from May 27 to September 30.


Sign up to get your Redemption code for special deals and promotions to use at participating businesses. You can also get a promo code with 9/11 Memorial Museum tickets.


A few of my recommendations:



Stone Street Tavern -- A friend chose this restaurant as the site of my birthday dinner a few years ago. Surf and turf was enjoyed by all. The location is a draw too as I'm a sucker for cobblestone, windy streets that bring me back to Old New York.


The Iron Horse -- skip Hogs and Heifers and go here. That is all. Oh, get on the giant swing too. And I know this is about Tuesdays but if you go on Sundays and buy a drink you get a free burger. Ok now, that is all.


City Sports -- their promo is for the Run Club but while you're there buy yourself a pair of supportive and ergonomically-correct sneakers for the miles that you'll cover and track on your pedometer that you'll also buy at City Sports.



Century 21 -- not that I'm a big shopper, but they're giving a free gift with no purchase necessary. When I do shop, I like a deal and what sort of travel specialist would I be if I didn't acknowledge the legions of visitors who flock to this location of Century 21.


Water Taxi - I like boats. Maybe because I'm a water sign and need to balance out living in the concrete jungle. Plus champagne on the river. I support that.


When I try some of the other restaurants offering Lower Manhattan Tuesdays deals, I'll report back. I have my eye on Merchants River House.
