Question to New York City fencers regarding new club:

[Mihail]

Where do you think would be the prime location to start a new club in NY?

Queens seems to be a likely candidate right now, but the subquestion would be: eastern Queens to attract Long Island customers or western Queens to stay close to the FC/AC and Manhattan in general?

Non-Queens locations are also still being considered, of course. What do you fellows think?

Top floor, Empire State Building.

Top floor, Empire State Building.

Heh, what good will the view be when only three of you will be able to afford the monthly fees?

OTOH think how powerful your legs will be from climbing the stairs to get to practice...

Dunno, I heard that square footage in the ESB is leasing for dirt cheap prices nowadays.

[swordsen]

I rather suspect that the phrase "dirt cheap" is very relative in such a situation.

[Epee_Pox]

I heard $13 per square foot. Perty dern cheap for prime Manhattan real estate with a sweet view.
