R/W Trains - 8 St.-NYU (Day 5, stop #240)


Out: Close to NYU, with a mix of clothing stores, restaurants, and the Strand bookstore.  It’s not nearly as crazy as SoHo, but still pretty crowded over here.  

There are lots of college-age folk, but still feels a bit B & T.  There are not as many tourists over here.  It’s also windy as hell at this intersection; I’m not sure why, but it’s always like this!


In: Again, a nicely renovated station, similar to Prince St.  There is a burgundy and green color scheme here and tile mosaic pictures of various buildings and historical scenes in New York (I like one of a beaver in particular).
