Please excuse my skepticism--I've been to so many workshops over the years that promise to somehow reveal new and amazing resources, and it's just another one of these things. I mean, they're GOOD as far as they go, but imo they all end up falling short, partly because the RESOURCES AREN'T THERE to meet people's needs.

The ferry is kind of a disaster any way. EDC/ the mayor plugging in millions of its rent revenue into it, which usually goes to City's general fund. That money would really come in handy during a crisis.And of course the ferries serve almost a predominately high income clientelehttps://nyc.streetsblog.org/2020/10/01/icymi-de-blasio-plugged-debt-spouting-ferry-service-with-millions-from-times-square/

There was another place not far from there, on Prince, an ancient barber shop with a stack of old Playboys on a little side table. I got my hair cut there once and when I asked the geezer who ran the place how much to pay him he kinda shrugs and goes 'whatever you think.' I think I paid him $5, he didn't complain.
